00:00On September 8, the Siglawan or Siglang Lawa of Tanawan was officially inaugurated.
00:07The aim of this inauguration is to promote tourism in the town.
00:11And one of the most anticipated celebrations is the Bancarera in Lawa ng Taal.
00:16We are showcasing the culture of the people of Tanawan.
00:20The culture of the use of boats.
00:23The use of these boats brought life to their ancestors in the past.
00:28We used these boats as a way of recreation.
00:33And we also used them for competitions.
00:37We met Tatay Benedicto, who has been participating in tourism for three years.
00:41I am very happy when I am in Lawa and I am a boatman.
00:45Especially when we have a competition here in Lawa.
00:50But it is not only the boats that are leading in Tanawan.
00:54There are also boats that can carry one hand.
00:57Again! Wow!
01:00These mini boats have a mechanism.
01:03The battery serves as a motor that connects to the back of the boat.
01:07These mini boats also participate in competitions.
01:12We only have the batteries that need to be 9V disposable.
01:18Not like the rechargeable ones.
01:20Who came up with the idea of having a competition?
01:24We just saw them in other places.
01:30We tried to make one.
01:33We learned a lot from other people who are interested.
01:37We were able to make boats.
01:40That's why we had a competition.
01:43Jason is only 15 years old when he first tried to make his own mini boat.
01:48These boats really go through a lot of time.
01:53How much do you spend on each boat?
01:56Maybe up to 2,500 pesos.
01:58Up to 2,500 pesos?
01:59Yes, up to the price of the boat.
02:01After that, if you win, what is the prize?
02:05It depends on who sponsors the prize.
02:09Like last June, we had a competition.
02:13The champion won 10,000 pesos.
02:1510,000 pesos?
02:16The second place won 10,000 pesos.
02:17The third place won 5,000 pesos.
02:20The total prize was 3,000 pesos.
02:21How many of you participate in the competition?
02:24There are a lot of us.
02:25I think there were 20 of us.
02:37One of my hobbies before was remote-controlled cars.
02:44My brother and I started that.
02:46I'm familiar with what they call a dynamo.
02:49It's funny because there's no remote control.
02:52It's just the machine and the battery that powers it.
02:57It would have been better if we could see the boats in the water.
03:03But we weren't lucky with the weather.
03:07But at least there's a pool and a body of water.
03:10And we could see them rowing.
03:15What do you think of this?
03:16Cool!
