Fishermen

Yesterday I had a special treat during my lunch visit to the beach. (I had rice, of course, and scrimp, octobus and fish in curry sauce. )

A group of fishermen were pushing their big fishing boat to the water. It was unbelievable heavy, the team had to spend about ten minutes pushing the boat, changing the logs, etc. until finally they made it to the sea, with a big net on the boat to catch fish.
I heard them saying something in Minangkabau, thinking they must have said like one-two-three push but no. My Minangkabau friends said that they said 'catching fish, catching fish, catching fish', to motivate themselves for pushing. These sailboats are big and painted beautifully.
