A sampan is a relatively flat-bottomed Chinese and Malay wooden boat. Some sampans include a small shelter on board and may be used as a permanent habitation on inland waters. The design closely resembles Western hard chine boats like the scow or punt. Sampans are generally used for transportation in coastal areas or rivers and are often used as traditional fishing boats. It is unusual for a sampan to sail far from land, as they do not have the means to survive rough weather. The word "sampan" is often claimed to derive from the original Cantonese term sāam báan (三板), literally "three planks",[1] but this is likely to be a folk etymology.[2] Pierre-Yves Manguin has pointed out possible Austronesian origin of the word, attested in a Malay inscription from 684 CE.[3] Sampans may be propelled by poles, oars (particularly a single, long sculling oar called a yuloh (simplified Chinese 摇橹/ traditional Chinese 搖櫓) [4]) or may be fitted with outboard motors.
