Wondering where the name Tomol came from? A tomol is plank-built paddle boat made by the Chumash and Tongva Native Americans tribes. They were used to travel up and down the coast and between the mainland and the Channel Islands. Building a good tomol was such an art that a craftmen’s guild existed for the boats, called the Brotherhood of the Tomol. Their ancestors are active through the Chumash Maritime Association. You can learn more about the Chumash Indians and tomol boats at the Santa Barbara Museum of Natural History.
