1. flatboat

   A flatboat is a type of watercraft, often rectangular in shape, which is designed to be used in shallow and calm waters. It generally has a flat bottom and square ends, used primarily for transport of goods or people on inland waterways, such as rivers and canals. Due to its construction, it is not suited for rough or open waters. The vessel is typically propelled by poles or by being pushed or towed.

1. Flatboat

   A flatboat is a rectangular flat-bottomed boat with square ends used to transport freight and passengers on inland waterways. The flatboat could be any size, but essentially it is large, sturdy tub with a hull that displaces water and so floats in the water. This differentiates the flatboat from the raft, which floats on the water. A flatboat is almost always a one-way vessel, and is usually dismantled for lumber when it reaches its downstream destination.
