Portuguese term or phrase: barco de boca aberta

I know what they are. They are small fishing boats with no covering or wheelhouse.

Skiffs? dinghy sounds too small, fishing boat too general

undecked boat

Explanation:
Based on this passage, I don’t believe it requires a specific name:

“Lancha da sacada ou lancha grande era usada na pesca do alto e no lançamento das redes de sacada. Com cerca de 9 metros de comprimento e 2,7 de boca, era um ** barco de boca aberta,** popa de painel e leme por fora. Tripulada por 4-5 homens, envergava um bastardo latino muito repicado com três filas de rizes.” — http://www.olhaocubista.pt/pesca/Embarcações.htm

“Columbus found the New World in an undecked boat.” (“New World? Really?) — http://www.finedictionary.com/Undecked.html

“The undecked boat also would have a better cartopping shape. I'd keep the stern chamber. It will ease your mind about taking a big wave over the stern.” — https://duckworks.com/larsboat-plans/
