creation of boats

The oldest recovered boat in the world is the Pesse canoe, a dugout made from the hollowed tree trunk of a Pinus sylvestris and constructed somewhere between 8200 and 7600 BC. This canoe is exhibited in the Drents Museum in Assen, Netherlands. Other very old dugout boats have also been recovered.

future boats

2017 BCE

The largest solar powered boat ever to set sail, the first time anyone has managed to sail around the world powered entirely by solar energy.The massive 8.5 ton boat comfortably carries a crew of a half dozen or so with plenty of room to host a dockside party for 100. It cruises comfortably at 5 knots but is capable of double that speed on particularly good days as it cuts through the waves with its knife-like design.[http://www.triplepundit.com/2012/01/future-solar-boats-planetsolar-turanor/]

Thoughts on new boats

2017 BCE

I like the shape of the jib. The main has a slight ridge in it from tension, I suppose. I also had to adjust the steering linkage to get even swing in the rudder. The hatch cover is a multi-level design and kept it dry inside, but the way the lines are routed, it can bind inside. Maybe it will wear in a bit and give better action.[https://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?2294234-Thoughts-on-my-new-boats-Nirvana-Ragazza-SeaWind]

Bad Things About Boats

2017 BCE

Everything that comes out of you and goes into the boat, well, it’s not going to stay in the boat. Pumping out your yacht’s holding tank will be a lengthy and fetid process. It’s a task that when able to be skimped from that eternal chore list will be. When your boat’s moored, it’s probably going to be far enough away from the pumping station to be inconvenient, so anything you flush down the head will go into the water.

Good Things About Boats

2017 BCE

Space. With you knees jammed somewhere up around your chin in another cross-country bus, you truly begin to appreciate the luxury of space that boats can afford. In fact, I revel in it so much that I often run to the center of the deck and burst into spontaneous star jumps simply because I can. Seriously, you can walk around at your leisure, even sometimes order food and drinks and spread out and sleep if you really need to(https://onestep4ward.com/5-reasons-why-traveling-by-boat-is-awesome)
