    FAO assigned a master boatbuilder to a project in Nepal for one year from November 1976 to October 1977 in order to set up and operate a boatbuilding training programme for the three lakes in the Pokhara region with the facilities on Lake Phewa. The purpose was to replace the existing dugout canoes with boats more suitable for fishing. The expert designed and constructed four different types of subsistence boats. A total of 21 boats was build during the expert's stay. Practical training was c arried on from the beginning relying upon people from near the lakes for trainees. Of the boats built by the project six were kept for the Fisheries Project and one was allocated to the Department of Tourism. The remaining boats were sold to the local people. The chief recommendation is that training should continue for people from around the lakes and possibly future recruitment can include trainees from other areas of Nepal. Arrangements should also be made for local people to get low co st loans to finance the purchase of these boats.
