Boat

A boat is a general term used to describe a watercraft. There are many different types of boats that are used for a variety of purposes. Speed boats for example, are good for zipping around the bay or the ocean for fun. These are also referred to as "motor boats", which also has an entirely different meaning as well. Yachts are big fancy pleasure crafts that rick pricks own. They go out and have their little expensive parties on the lagoon sipping mimosas and bottles of champagne while some scantily clad blonde chick sunbathes on the deck.

The military utilizes boats for travel and armed combat. Boats employed for militaristic use are usually vessels conscripted for service by a nation's navy. American organizations that use boats include the National Guard, the United States Navy, and the United States Marine Corps.

Canoes are little boats with no real amenities. They can accommodate a number of people sitting in front of one another and its only means of motivation is through the use of oars or paddles.

On the TV series Fear the Walking Dead, there is a boat of some note called The Abigail. The Abigail is a luxury yacht owned by Thomas Abigail. It was used primarily by Thomas' boyfriend, Victor Strand. In the early years of the zombie apocalypse, Victor used it to escape from Los Angeles, bringing with him members of the Clark family, the Manawa family and the Salazar family.
