A small, open craft without any deck.
Any small craft, as opposed to a ship, which carries boats. Also, perhaps in a general spirit of perversity, submariners and naval aviators refer to their respective vessels, submarines and aircraft carriers, as "boats." The word comes from the Old Norse bato-or Possibly beit-both meaning "boat."
A form of transport for travelling on water (they float!). Can be as small as a coracle, or as large enough to cross seas.
a small, undecked craft propelled by oars or a small sail on a short mast. Ships' boats varied in capacity and size, but always had a shallow draft. They were used to haul cargo, supplies and personnel to and from shore. Carried aboard ships in the fleet during the Atlantic crossing, the versatile and maneuverable ship's boat played a major role in the exploration of the shallow sounds and rivers of northeastern North Carolina.
Submariners call their craft a "boat" although the modern submarine is big enough to be called a ship. (The Soviet Submarine, Julliett 484, anchored in Providence is over 300 feet long).
