S'ciopon
The s’ciopon is the smallest sandolo of the lagoon. It was designed for hunting with a spingarda (a large gun) and for fishing with a harpoon. Usually rowed by a single oarsman rowing alla valesana, its fórcole are the simplest and least expensive, cut from a board of modest thickness, they have been ‘fattened up’ as can be seen in the photographs.
