This document provides an overview of water-based transportation in Indonesia. It discusses Indonesia's geography as an archipelago and how water transportation has historically been important for transporting people and goods. Different types of water vessels used in Indonesia are described, from small traditional boats like sampans and jukungs to larger ferries and passenger ships. The advantages and limitations of water transportation are listed. In conclusion, as the world's largest archipelagic nation, water transportation continues to play a key role in Indonesia's economy and society by connecting its many islands.

6. EVOLUTION OF WATER
TRANSPORTATION
TIMELINE
Li Zhiyuan (China), Hefei, China, 28 Mei 2007

7. Raft (Rakit)

8. A frame boat, built like a basket and covered with
animal skins was another very early boat. A coating
of tar kept the boat watertight.

9. Boat builders in ancient Egypt used reeds to build
what were probably the first sailing boats.
4000 BC

10. The Egyptians were building wooden boats
that could sail across oceans.
2500 BC

11. 1000 After Domini
Viking longboats
These ships had sails as well as up to 60 oarsmen (Pendayung) who
rowed the ship. The longboats were long and narrow so were able to
travel on the open sea, as well as along rivers.

12. Chinese junks were sailing boats with a rudder (kemudi) for steering
the boat, battens on the sails to give them greater strength, and
watertight compartments long before western ships had them.
1100 After Domini

13. 1450 onwards
Three and four sailing ships were in
service for several centuries.

14. 1800’s
Fast sailing ships called 'clipper ships' were
built. They had long, slim hulls (lambung kapal)
and tall masts (tiang kapal).

15. 1819
The first steamships to cross the Atlantic
combined steam and wind power.

16. The first ocean-going liners made of iron and driven
by a propeller were being built from this time.
1845

17. 1910
Coal (Batu bara) burning sailing ships were converted to
diesel power, using oil instead of steam.

18. Hovercraft float above the waves on cushions (bantalan2) of
air and are capable of high speeds of up to 140 km an hour.
1955

19. 1959
The N.S. Savannah, one of the first nuclear powered
cargo ships, was able to sail for three and a half years
without refueling.

20. 1980s
Hydrofoil
Used as ferries or water taxis, hydrofoils ride on wings
that lift the craft clear of the water so that it rides on skis
as it gains speed. (100 knot)

21. Container ships carry cargo in huge metal boxes which are stacked
on the deck. A modern cargo ship can carry up to one thousand
containers.

22. Among the largest ships ever built, these
supertankers are used to transport oil. (380m X 68m)
TUG BOAT

23. 1990s
Cruise liners are ships that carry hundreds of
people on floating holidays. (1 meter = 3 feet)

24. Modern nuclear powered aircraft carriers, battle cruisers,
destroyers, and nuclear powered submarines are all used to
keep a country safe and to protect its territory.

25. Limitations of Water Transport
1. The depth and navigability of rivers and canals vary and
thus, affect operations ofdifferent transport vessels.
2. It is a slow moving mode of transport and therefore not
suitable for transport of perishable goods.
3. It is adversely affected by weather conditions.
4. Sea transport requires large investment on ships and their
maintenance.
5. Accident can cause water pollution and creating dangers
for marine life,
6. Not flexible.

26. Water Transport advantages
1. It is a relatively economical mode of transport for bulky (tebal and heavy
goods.
2. It is a safe mode of transport with respect to occurrence of accidents.
3. The cost of maintaining and constructing routes is very low as most of
them are naturally made.
4. Play major role in the international trade,
5. Reducing congestion by using available space on the water
6. Ensure fast and direct connection, supporting the land-borne mode
7. Providing a reliable service for commuters
8. Providing a unique way to discover a city for tourist and leisure
travelers.
9. Increase in Economic Activity
10. Increase in Foreign Exchange
11. Decrease in Transportation Cost
12. Increase in Government Revenue
13. Increase in Employment opportunities
14. Increase in Foreign Investment
