    Boats beat out horse drawn carts by an insane amount.

    It’s why trade hubs and major cities were practically always on a major river and/or in a favourable location for a port.

        Someone’s never owned a boat.

        There are 3 idioms that come to mind.

        A boat is a hole in the water you pour money into.

        A boat owner is only happy twice. When they buy a boat, and when they sell it.

        “You don’t want to buy a boat. What you want is a friend with a boat!”
