Life boats, no.. they are not afforded that luxury.. they get life rafts...Do not the Royal Navy carry boats on their ships: lifeboats, tenders, rescue boats?
And a Boatswain for each.
In the RN. a ship floats.. a boat sinks (submarine)Just a question from someone who lives as far from the sea as you can get in England what actually is the difference between a ship and a boat?
Back in the day it used to be 3 sail masts or more was a ship less was a boat.Just a question from someone who lives as far from the sea as you can get in England what actually is the difference between a ship and a boat?
