Boats of the Ocean 
  
 

    Here are some bullets shot right out of my mind and onto your screen. 
 

  • Diesel engines, turbo-electric gas turbines, gas turbines, nuclear engines, and oars power most types of boats today.

    •  
  •  In 1912, the Titanic hit an iceberg and sank to the bottom of the Atlantic Sea. 

    •  
  •  The Titanic’s shipwreck included 1,513 deaths.

    •  
  •  A canoe isn’t really a self-righting boat, but the riders of these boats can easily flip back up if their canoe capsizes. 

    •  
  •  A stern is the rear end of a boat or ship.

    •  
  •  Buoys are cone-like balls that keep little boats from going too far out into a body of water.

    •  
  •  Buoys also are used for racing in and out of.

    •  
  •  Ferries are used mostly to take passengers over large amounts of water. 

    •  
  •  Barges are used to transport more heavy containers to the places they need to go.
