Bangka was also spelled as banca, panca, or panga (m. banco, panco, pango) in Spanish. It is also known archaically as sakayan (also spelled sacayan).

Carece de cubierta, quilla, timón y bancadas fijas. Suele ir provista de para resguardo de la intemperie. Se gobierna con la pagaya. Lleva una o dos batangas amadrinadas a los costados que aseguren su flotación, bancadas de tablas móviles y zaguales en vez de remos. (es) |
