Note 11 — Preface
Reading edition
Retana (Estadismo, ii, p. 512*) says that the baroto is now a boat dug out of a single log, sometimes of more than eighty feet in length. They are used principally for the lading and discharging of vessels, and are native craft of Cebú and neighboring islands. See U.S. Gazetteer of Philippine Islands (Washington, 1902).
