The small village Pambusuang is a paradise for outrigger sailing boat lovers. In this village nearly every family has its own Sandeq that is used for fishing. As these extremely fast sailing boats are the main source of income for the people, they are maintained very well. This means that the Sandeqs at least every two months are painted.

Pambusuang is part of the Mandar area, roughly the area between Mamuju and Pare-Pare in South Sulawesi, Indonesia. The Sandeq still is the most common fishing boat in this area, but it looks like motor boats slowly will replace them.
