not really though because they've got inland ships all over the place that don't often leave inland waters. I'm talking nautically though and national/international laws can change but I think the consensus is on size, here I found this that sounds like something I've heard:

http://www.wisegeek.com/what-is-the-difference-between-a-ship-and-a-boat.htm

and yeah submarines are technically considered boats but they have a different set of rules and shit that they follow other than a fishing boat, tug boat, or sailing boat would. And if you were to see one at sea on watch, you'd have to report it as a sub not a boat.

was talking in naval terminology (particularly Royal Navy but iirc other continental navies also)

shaky consensus does not overrule technical accuracy

i learned at this point i've lost all respect for shep fairey. how does he try to sue people for doing OBEY and HOPE? ignore the message and whether or not art can sample things directly, at this point he's kind of being a whiny douche.

yeah dude, where the word came from cool.

I'm not saying you're wrong, I'm saying right now the terminology is very important and means something different then "rowboat". When you refer to a vessel of a certain size as a ship, boat, or whatever you've got to know what sized vessel with what characteristics fit that description or an officer will get pissed at you, thats navy too btw.

take this one from personal experience, its alot more complicated then just "where word came from" and "boats fit on ships". There is no fucking way you'd see a tugboat mounted on a fucking ship so I see that definition as pretty weak too.

edit: fuck I read your post completely wrong.

yup this is where I'm coming from too.

this is apparently a US naval thing because the technical definition in the Royal Navy is as I described originally.

the difference has nothing to do with size as is commonly thought!

this is misleading though. I don't think anyone could really know at which point the word was changed to just being used to describe a "smaller vessel" and saying now that size doesn't matter isn't accurate at all because it is.....very important, now. And has been for a very long time.

yeah royal navy is probably different and I wouldn't be surprised if they had a different word for a smaller sized vessel but they should still know though because international seafaring law is pretty important, but very confusing sometimes.

case of common usage vs. technical definition here.

fuck if we care about international seafaring law we are the nation of gunboat (ship) diplomacy

I mean yeah, but why do you think that a captain would get pissed off if you called his ship a boat?

It could be because you're unwittingly insulting his ship. - likely I guess if you're working with a fucking asshole but not very probable

Or because you don't know your seamanship - very probable and if its that important then I think it would be technical usage and what you're referring to is traditional usage

again I have to reiterate that it may well be traditional usage in your neck of the woods but hell if we are not old fashioned fuckers!

Its not the size of the vessel...

Its the motion of the ocean

hypothesised, not proven. correlation does not necessarily imply causation!

Boulvae is 12 and i think what he meant was people pick those with bigger jaws as more inclined to take bigger risks and as more aggressive

You need 16 teslas to levitate a frog. Just so you know.

who doesn't want to see a frog levitating with its little weird legs all scrambling around trying to find the ground again
