-====== Ships and Boats from Sinan======+====== Ships and Boats from Sinan ====== 
 + 
 +The ships and boats of Sinan conform to the same basic principles as vessels of other nations -  however, they are characterised  by battened sails, flat bottoms and lee board. 
 + 
 +===== Basic Boats ===== 
 + 
 +These vessels all conform to the technical description of a **[[pathfinder:off-the-shelf:ships_boats:shipsstats#raft|Raft]]**.  Minor, descriptive, items might change slightly, but the numbers don't.  You do not need any specialized boat building facilities to build any of these vessels.  However, you will need appropriate craft or survival skills.  These are the favoured vessels of many small wetland and river communities. 
 +^Vessel ^ Notes |  
 +|{{:pathfinder:off-the-shelf:ships_boats:bamboo_raft.jpg?100|}} | **Bamboo Rafts** are quick to build, and often used by river and swamp folk as a simple work platform. It also serves adventurers as an emergency vessel - and can be constructed using Survival or any (appropriate) Craft Skill.|

-| {{:pathfinder:off-the-shelf:ships_boats:shipsboat.png?100|}} | **Ship's Boats** can be propelled by up to ten oars and are generally used to transport crew and passengers from ship to shore. Larger ships use longboats as tenders and lifeboats.  Large vessels may be known as Cutters, with smaller vessels are known as a Jolly Boat.  | +|{{  :pathfinder:off-the-shelf:ships_boats:asian-shipsboat.jpg?100  |}}| **Sampan**  Often used for moving cargo around in harbours or along riversthey can also be used as a tender by larger vessels. | 
-| {{:pathfinder:off-the-shelf:ships_boats:dory.png?100|}}| **A Dory** is a high sided fishing boat that is used for lake, estuary and coastal fishing.  They rarely sail a long way out to sea.| +
-|{{:pathfinder:off-the-shelf:ships_boats:whaleboat.png?100|}} | **Whalers** are double-ended with space at both ends for the harpooner to cast securely.  They are fitted with special crossbeams that allow the whale to 'tow' the boat, without pulling it to pieces. | +
-| {{:pathfinder:off-the-shelf:keelboat.png?100|}} | **A Riverboat**  follows the same design philosophy, but is much larger than the other boats in this category at 30ft by 15ft.  It carries more cargo (10 tons), costs 1000gp, but only uses the same number of crew.  It has a small cabin, but is not designed for open water, and would founder at sea.  While it can be rowed, a riverboat relies on its sail for propulsion.| +
-|{{:pathfinder:off-the-shelf:ships_boats:lighter.jpg?100|}} | **A Lighter** is larger than other vessels in this category, at about 30x15, but is built very differently.  It is flat-bottomed has no masts or cabin, and can only be moved at speed 10, using long sweeps.  Lighters are used for moving cargo around in harbours and portsit can carry 20 tons of cargo and costs 500gp|+
