Also in our latitudes you can find boats made of aluminum-magnesium alloy. They are significantly inferior to fiberglass models both from an aesthetic and practical point of view.
Another difference between a boat and a boat is the size. The length of the boat rarely exceeds five meters, and the width reaches two at best. Standard boats are designed for 2-4 people. These simple vehicles are not equipped with additional facilities. The length of the boat is an order of magnitude longer, it can reach nine meters. Accordingly, the vessel's capacity is higher. It can comfortably accommodate about 15-20 people. Often, the vehicle is equipped with a cabin with berths, a wheelhouse and a latrine.
