The term 'Malay Boat' refers to three different types of traditional boats used in Malaysia. The first is the PROA, a double-hulled sailing vessel with a single mast and a triangular sail. The second is the Prau, a single-hulled sailing vessel with a single mast and a square sail. The third is the Prahu, a single-hulled sailing vessel with two masts and a rectangular sail. All three boats are used for fishing, transportation, and recreation.
