aba555 Posted September 29, 2005 #126 Share Posted September 29, 2005 When we cruised on the Sovereign, Captain Loekling said the difference between a ship and a boat was that a ship has a captain and a boat has a frustrated husband and an angry wife!:) That is so funny! We have a "boat" and I can attest that the above quote is true! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AmandaNS Posted September 30, 2005 #128 Share Posted September 30, 2005 According to The Oxford Dictionary of Current English, one of the definitions of the word "boat" is "any ship". I've had a great laugh while reading this thread!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EDnLISA Posted September 30, 2005 #130 Share Posted September 30, 2005 I spent 9 years working in a shipyard building super tankers and large Naval vessels. We always called them boats. What did we know? EDn LISA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Onessa Posted September 30, 2005 #132 Share Posted September 30, 2005 I can live with vessel, ship, boat, tub, or whatever as long as Stewart doesn't have to call me out of the dinning room to my mustard station because we are going down! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Merion_Mom Posted October 1, 2005 #136 Share Posted October 1, 2005 A boat is something you put gravy in (at least in England).:)Is this why, when the SHIP is sinking, they say that it's going to "Gravy Jones' Locker"?? ;) :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
