Edward: "Boat? I see no boat here. Do you?"

Jennifer: "Ugh. I mean ship, obviously. I don't see the difference anyway."

Edward: "Ah! It's a very simple one, Jenny. A ship can carry a boat, but a boat cannot carry a ship."

—Edward Kenway to his daughter Jennifer Scott, 1722

A riverboat on the Thames

A boat is a watercraft which, while ranging fairly widely in size, is invariably smaller than a ship.

History

Throughout Egyptian history, rowboats built from wood, called feluccas, as well as reed boats were used to navigate the Nile. Venice, an Italian island city cut by many canals, likewise employs rowboats named gondolas as a daily means of transportation. During the 19th century, steam riverboats were employed for travel along the River Thames in London.
