Large longtailed boats like this shuffle tourists to and from Ko Panyi, the village in the background. Once this was just a village of Moslem fishermen but now tourism is their main source of income. These big longtails have automobile or truck engines balanced on their transoms to provide tremendous power and high speeds.
