Description An attempt was made to survey the boat builders
of Malpe Fisheries Harbour and to analyse how boat
building forms an alternate source of income
generation and livelihood. There are two boat building
yards at Malpe, one near Malpe Fisheries Harbour
and another at Angarkatte, 5 km from Malpe. The
boat-building yard at Malpe is 35 years old and the
technology of boat building is a traditional profession
and is the monopoly of the Aachari community.
