The '''sandòlo''' is the most common lagoon boat and has many different uses. The most common use of the sandolo is in private ownership; however, it was also used as a water taxi or fishing boat. This vessel is one of the few that is still very common today, although many are now motorized. The sandòlo can also be commonly seen in races throughout Venice.

Its hull length ranges from five to nine meters long. Its main features includes a flat bottom, straight sides that flare outwards, a long, pointed overhanging stem. There are many local variants, which include: the ''sàndolo ciosoto'', ''buranelo'', ''San Pietro'' or ''[[sanpierota]]'', ''[[puparin]]'', the ''[[s'ciopon]]'', and the ''[[mascareta]]''.
