The native Ainu people of [[Shauku archipelago]] are famous for creating a type of boat called the {{wp|pinisi}} and [[Burgundie]] had reinvested in making these boats is a cottage industry for the islanders so that they can have their own indigenous deep-sea fishing fleet and local trading fleet with [[Sotsial]] and [[Oyashima]]. These ships are carries seven to eight sails on two masts, arranged like a gaff-ketch with what is called 'standing gaffs' — i.e., unlike most [[Occidental]] sailing ships using such a rig, the two main sails are not opened by raising the spars they are attached to, but the sails are 'pulled out' like curtains along the gaffs which are fixed at around the centre of the masts. This allows the gaff to be used as a crane to embark and disembark up to 200 tonnes of {{wp|breakbulk cargo}}. These ships usually carry timber, local produce, and commodities. Since the annexation of the islands by [[Burgundie]] there have been some converted to tourism crusiers and day trippers who h have proven wildly popular. The construction itself is also a tourist attraction.
