A boat is a watercraft designed to float on and navigate through water. Boats come in various sizes and types, including small rowboats, sailboats, and larger motorboats. They are commonly used for transportation, recreation, fishing, and sports.
Boats can be made from different materials such as wood, fiberglass, or metal. They are often powered by oars, sails, or engines. Many people enjoy boating as a leisure activity, and it can also be an essential means of transport in areas where roads are not accessible, such as in some regions of the Amazon River or Venice.
