boat.
a. A relatively small, usually open craft of a size that might be carried aboard a ship.
b. An inland vessel of any size.
c. A ship or submarine.

ship
a. A vessel of considerable size for deep-water navigation.
b. A sailing vessel having three or more square-rigged masts.

Well that's an interesting question, just like which came first the chicken or the egg. :hmm:
