If you want more fun, in us navy parlance, boats are only submarines. Everything else is a ship. The easy way to remember it is that if it sinks on purpose, its a boat.

Submariners will tell you this is wrong, and that are only boats, and targets.

So does that mean a ship that is purposely scuttled is now a boat? 🤔

If you scuttle it, it's just a wreck. The boats have to come back up.
