Ah, but I’ve seen a ship in a bottle on a boat.Ah. Finally. Being someone that works on a cruise ship, this is something that often gets asked.
I was always told a boat can fit on a ship. We have lifeboats on a cruise ship.
I think a boat is a general catch-all term for a vessel that travels over water. A ship is a large vessel that moves over water.

Does that mean it’s a relative definition and any ship can become a boat if it’s put on a bigger ship?As above: you could put a boat on a ship but you could never put a ship on a boat. Voila.
