"Cool looking boat"

Actually the correct term is ship, ships are big enough to carry boats (like life boats).
I learned the correct terms my first day aboard my ship.
Then I was sent to get some "water line" from one of the Chief's. LOL

Except for when you're talking about subs. Those guys like to call them "boats" for some reason. At least that's what I heard...
