Question

what is the difference between fishing with mechanical boats and with karrateppa ?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Mechanical Boats: These boats go with a high speed in the sea and brings a large quantity catch of fishes

Karrateppa Boats: These boats go with minimum speed and brings a small quantity catch of fishes

Answer 2

Answer:

Karrateppa is a country made boat which goes up to 5 km into the sea and brings small catch of fish. This fish can be taken by the wives of the fisherman known as Berakatthela. They sell this fish in nearby towns like naupada, Tekkali, Pandi and Palasa.

Compared to the Karrateppa there is far more risk of life in mechanised boat which called Marapadava. Because it goes far into sea and it is difficult to swim over to the share in times of trouble. Apart from that, there is no first aid available in the big boats, or any life jackets, fishing is risky and brave occupation.
