 __**Dugout Canoe**__ -  Old Fashioned dugout canoe, with an outrigger and the same stats as a Rowboat.  It is used for close coastal work, including laying fishing nets and gathering seaweed.  It is also used for training boys to paddle or command vessels -  dugout crews can be the basis of gangs and sergeants …  Especially if they win races.
-__**Canoe**__ -  A large outrigger canoe with a crabclaw sail, and up to sixteen paddlers.  This ‘squad’ sized vessel is used for minor inshore piracy, and the occasional small raid (both along the coast and in the delta).  The Orcs are mainly interested in metals (including weapons and armour), booze of any sort, food and anything else that looks expensive.  Each individual raider loads up their pockets and bags with as much personal loot as they can get their hands on, and then chuck everything else into the canoe - without worrying whether it will be spoiled by exposure to the seawater.  However, with a full squad of orc raiders aboard, they can’t really get away with much plunder.  Orc Pirac, and squad raids, are just slash and grab raids, with a bit of mayhem and violence thrown in for good measure.   Structural damage, on buildings or vessels, is light - although the orcs tend to start fires to cover their retreat.

 //NOTE://  A canoe, with a crew of four, can be used as a fishing boat in coastal waters, wetlands, rivers and deltas.  However, it is paddled rather than rowed.
