Posty of Traditional trawling boat ~ Portugal

It was written at the backside of the card as "In the picture you u can see a traditional trawling boat. The boat is pushed by the men into the water and there is no motor. Then, when the fishermen come back, the nets are pulled by the fishermen and it's wife and also the ox's. It is called the "Arte xávega"

Thank you to Claninda, from Vagulina ~ A beach in the north of Portugal
