Brief History
The gamelas are, together with the dornas, the most emblematic type of Galician popular boats.
They have a flat bow and stern and a flat bottom.
They are propelled by oars and sail.
They were built completely in pine wood and used to be painted completely red with a mixture that served as paint and hull.
Nowadays they are painted in various bright colours.
Its name comes from "gamella", that is, a trough or drawer in which the animals ate.
The "Carmiña" stands out above all for its ease of stranding and its dimensions of more than 5 meters in length and almost 2 meters in width. For the anchoring it continues using the ancestral "poutada" of stone.
