Vintas are traditional boats originating from Mindanao, Philippines. The Bajao and Moros of Sulu and Zamboanga created these boats. They were made from dug-out canoes and installed with double outriggers.
Bajaos and people from Basilan and Tawi-tawi were known as great swimmers and people with great knowledge of the sea and oceans.
It's locally known as "Lepa-lepa" or "Sakayan", and is used to transport goods and travelers for inter-island trips. The most remarkable traits of these boats are the colorful patterns of its sails.
The Vinta basically signifies the general evolution of Sulu towards peace, progress and development.
It is a representation of Zamboanga’s history and culture, and it is also one of the symbols that represent the Philippines as it signifies migration and the colorful traditions of the country.
