A pump boat is an outrigger canoe powered by a small gasoline or diesel engine. Smaller pump boats might be powered by the sort of small single-cylinder engine which might be used to drive a water pump. Larger ones are often powered by recycled automobile engines.
Pump boats are popular in coastal towns of the Philippines as a mode of inter-island transportation.
They are also used for Island Hopping and other tourist activities.
