Ladjak (meaning "sail" in Chamorro) was a general term referring to both sails woven from
pandanus leaves and to single-outrigger canoes ("
") fitted with a sail. These vessels include the very large
sakman (usually known as "flying proas" in historical records), the slightly smaller
lelek, the medium-sized
duding, and the small
duduli. It excludes the
panga and the
galaide’, which were not fitted with sails.
