'Jangadeiros' -fishermen- in a small fishing village next to canoa quebrada, in the state of ceara, in the north of brasil. these boats are called 'jangadas', and they are simple, effective and elegant sea vessels, made locally out of local tree trunks and strong cloth sails. the sails can get very colourful, advertising a wide range of brands, and the fishermen compete with one another for who has the 'prettiest' sail. the jangadas set off early in the morning during the first high tide, and returns in the middle afternoon during another high tide.
