Boats, also known as ships or sea vessels, are a form of transportation designed to float and move on water. They can be powered by oars, sails, or engines, and are mainly used by sailors for various purposes, such as fishing, or military and commercial activities. In World of Warcraft, boats stay docked in harbors for exactly 60 seconds, then depart to take players to other zones.

Notes
- Ferry masters in Kul Tiras can offer Alliance characters a means of travel throughout Tiragarde Sound.
- All the seaworthy vessels of the Admiralty of Kul Tiras are blessed by the tidesages, who commune with the sea to guide the nation's legendary fleet.[1]
- The Forsaken battleships are ships dredged up from the bottom of the ocean, most of which were once among Lordaeron's fleets.[2]
- There is a wreckage of a distinct Kul Tiran ship in the Siege of Boralus dungeon.[3] A version of this ship has since been seen intact and operational being used by the Alliance during an Faction Assault on Nazmir, until it was destroyed by the Horde.[4]
- In Warcraft II: Tides of Darkness and Warcraft II: Beyond the Dark Portal, orc boats are referred to as Wave Riders.[5][6][7]
- In patch 2.3.0, transport ships were crewed by NPCs. Unfortunately, the vendors did not work as intended and the crews were eventually removed in a hotfix on 12/06/07.[8]
- The crew and guards returned in the Wrath of the Lich King beta, and with patch 3.0.2 on live realms.

Patch changes
Patch 4.0.3a (2010-11-23):
- The boat from Stormwind now sails to Rut'theran Village following Deathwing's destruction of Auberdine.
- Introduced a mercenary ship from Stormwind (same dock as the Northrend ship) with the quest [30-35] Call of Duty.
- Patch 3.0.2 (2008-10-14): The crews have returned.
- Hotfix (2007-12-06): The vendors on the Boats and Zeppelins throughout Azeroth have run out stock and shut up shop, they are no longer able to service you with their wares.
- Patch 2.3.0 (2007-11-13): Boats that carry players are now populated with NPC crews, some of which are vendors. The boats also now rock side-to-side while moving.
- Patch 1.7.0 (2005-09-13): Some of the ship paths have been modified.
- Hotfix (2005-04-22): The boat between Menethil and Auberdine has returned to normal operation.
- Hotfix (2005-01-21): Today's maintenance removed the boat that traveled from Menethil Harbor to Auberdine from the realms listed below. Two new NPCs, Captain Placeholder in Menethil Harbor and Captain Noteo in Auberdine, have been placed on the docks where players used to board this boat. Both NPCs are marked with a yellow exclamation point over hovering over their heads (the same exclamation point used to let players know that an NPC has an available quest for them). Opening a dialog with these NPCs will allow players to travel between the two cities.
