A naval history type explained to me that when on the ocean they are
ships, they being large vessels. Exception being submarines, they are
boats.
(as in submarines are built by General Dynamics "Electric Boat
Division")
Also, vessels intended for primary use on the American-Canadian Great
Lakes are Boats - ocean vessels (ships) that make their way to the Great
Lakes via the St Lawrence Seaway are known to "Lakers" as "salties."
No Diego, that's salties, not saltines.
I guess there are other rules, but after awhile my eyes glaze over if it
isn't airplanes or armor... LOL.
