  • Balangay, auch als Balanghai bezeichnet, ist ein Langboot, das auf den Philippinen während des Mittelalters als Kriegs-, Handels- und Personenschiff verwendet wurde. Elf hochseetaugliche Schiffe wurden bei Ausgrabungen in der Stadt Butuan City auf der Insel Mindanao geborgen. Diese sind als Butuan-Boote bekannt geworden und gelten als archäologisch und historisch besonders wertvoll, da der Balangay der einzige bekannte Bootstyp ist, der nur in Südostasien über einen Zeitraum von 1.300 Jahren Verwendung fand. Das Wort Balangay entstammt der austronesischen Sprachenfamilie und bedeutet Segelboot. (de)
  • El balangay (antiguamente también, bote Butuán​) es un bote de tablones de madera unidos a un tablón tallado mediante clavijas de madera y metal. Fue mencionado por primera vez en el siglo XVI en las crónicas de Pigafetta, y es conocido como la embarcación más antigua en Filipinas. El balangay más antiguo conocido fue fechado con carbono hacia el 320 e.c. Los balangays fueron la primera embarcación de madera tallada en el Sudeste Asiático y evidencia las habilidades marineras y artesanales de los antiguos pobladores filipinos durante la época precolonial filipina. El Festival de Balanghai también es una celebración en Butuán (Agusán Norte), para conmemorar la llegada de los primeros migrantes que se asentaron en Filipinas, a bordo de barcas Balangay.​ Cuando llegaron los primeros españoles en el siglo XVI, encontraron a los filipinos viviendo en aldeas independientes bien organizadas llamadas barangayes. El nombre barangay se originó de balangay, la palabra austronésica para «velero»​​ (es)
  • Le balangay, ou barangay (synonyme de butuan), est un type de bateau à voiles et rames, à bordages à franc-bord. Présent massivement au XVIe siècle, il serait apparu dès l'antiquité en Austronésie. Il représente un symbole patrimonial fort aux Philippines. (fr)

  • , these are much larger than the ones mentioned earlier, some capable of carrying 500 or 600 fanegas of wheat. They are also oared, but they are very long and are moored to the ship like ours, and are of a different design. These are the biggest of their boats; the rest are small and are called by many different names and have different designs and need not be described here because they are unimportant." (en)

The oars [sic] of these ships are a little more than a vara in length; their shafts are very well made. The oars are not fastened to the boat for rowing; instead the seated oarsmen ply gently with both hands. These vessels are extremely swift. They hold two or three banks of seated oarsmen on a side, provided there are enough people to fill them. And these banks are placed in counterweights , which are made of a very large bamboo plant found on all the Philippine Islands of the West. These counterweights are placed on the outer sides of the vessel, where the oarsmen are seated comfortably. These vessels travel very safely with these counterweights because they cannot capsize, and the counterweights also allow them to travel in heavy seas because the ship is elevated above the level of the water, so the waves break against the counterweights and not against the boats. They have round sails like ours." "They have other ships they call (en)
