Etymology Dutch observer van Deventer wrote that it means "freight seeker". Gibson-Hill stated the name comes from Malay word ''golek'', which he claimed meant crank (tender, or 'tippy') when applied to a canoe. Rather, the name derived from ''kolek'', a Javanese word for 'boat', applied to a wide range of small craft along the north coast of Java.

Sailboat Types
A sailboat or sailing boat is a boat propelled partly or entirely by sails and is smaller than a sailing ship. Distinctions in what constitutes a sailing boat and ship vary by region and maritime culture. Types Although sailboat terminology has varied across history, many terms have specific meanings in the context of modern yachting. A great number of sailboat-types may be distinguished by size, hull configuration, keel type, purpose, number and configuration of masts, and sail plan. Popular monohull designs include: Cutter The cutter is similar to a sloop with a single mast and mainsail, but generally carries the mast further aft to allow for a jib and staysail to be attached to the head stay and inner forestay, respectively. Once a common racing configuration, today it gives versatility to cruising boats, especially in allowing a small staysail to be flown from the inner stay in high winds.
