Negril.com - For the vacation that never ends!
Impressive. As the caption says, those boats always have some insane stories to tell. I'd love to be able to sail (with motor) like that, but unless I win the lotto it aint happening (even then, still not happening).
It was a beautiful boat. Someone taking people back and forth from the airport said it was in Montego Bay the previous morning.
That's a ship,not a boat.
Simplistically, a ship can carry a boat, but a boat cannot carry a ship. But you could debate this for a long time.
There's no right answer because there are always exceptions. The ship carrying a boat thing works a bit but not for a fishing boat, for example. A ship is generally an ocean going vessel but then that doesn't work for submarines which are always boats. Or over 500GT, always exceptions to that too! A sailing ship is one that has 3 or more masts with yards crossing them - but i don't suppose that helps much.
A yacht is a vessel used for the pleasure of it owner.
