In contrast, a raft is buoyant because it joins components that are themselves buoyant, for example, logs, bamboo poles, bundles of reeds, floats (such as inflated hides, sealed pottery containers or, in a modern context, empty oil drums). The key difference between a raft and a boat is that the former is a "flow through" structure, with waves able to pass up through it. Consequently, except for short river crossings, a raft is not a practical means of transport in colder regions of the world as the users would be at risk of <a href="/wiki/Hypothermia" title="Hypothermia">hypothermia</a>. Today that climatic limitation restricts rafts to between 40° north and 40° south, with, in the past, similar boundaries that have moved as the world's climate has varied.<sup id="cite_ref-McGrail_2001_2-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-McGrail_2001-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup class="reference nowrap"><span title="Page: 11">: 11 </span></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Types">Types</h3></div> <p>The earliest boats may have been either <a href="/wiki/Dugout_(boat)" class="mw-redirect" title="Dugout (boat)">dugouts</a> or hide boats.<sup id="cite_ref-McGrail_2001_2-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-McGrail_2001-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup class="reference nowrap"><span title="Page / location: 11">: 11 </span></sup> The oldest recovered boat in the world, the <a href="/wiki/Pesse_canoe" title="Pesse canoe">Pesse canoe</a>, found in the <a href="/wiki/Netherlands" title="Netherlands">Netherlands</a>, is a dugout made from the hollowed tree trunk of a <i><a href="/wiki/Pinus_sylvestris" title="Pinus sylvestris">Pinus sylvestris</a></i> that was constructed somewhere between 8200 and 7600 BC.

There are examples of logboats that have been expanded: by deforming the hull under the influence of heat, by raising up the sides with added planks, or by splitting down the middle and adding a central plank to make it wider. (Some of these methods have been in quite recent use – there is no simple developmental sequence). The earliest known plank-built boats are from the Nile, dating to the third millennium BC. Outside Egypt, the next earliest are from England.

In 1855 <a href="/wiki/Ferro-cement" class="mw-redirect" title="Ferro-cement">ferro-cement</a> boat construction was patented by the French, who coined the name "ferciment". This is a system by which a steel or iron wire framework is built in the shape of a boat's hull and covered over with cement.

By the 1930s boats built entirely of steel from frames to plating were seen replacing wooden boats in many industrial uses and fishing fleets. Private recreational boats of steel remain uncommon.

Instead, they are susceptible to structural degradation from sunlight and extremes in temperature over their lifespan. Fiberglass structures can be made stiffer with sandwich panels, where the fiberglass encloses a lightweight core such as balsa<sup id="cite_ref-16" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-16"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>16<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> or foam. </p><p><a href="/wiki/Strip-built" title="Strip-built">Cold molding</a> is a modern construction method, using wood as the structural component. In one cold molding process, very thin strips of wood are layered over a form. Each layer is coated with resin, followed by another directionally alternating layer laid on top. Subsequent layers may be stapled or otherwise mechanically fastened to the previous, or weighted or vacuum bagged to provide compression and stabilization until the resin sets. An alternative process uses thin sheets of plywood shaped over a disposable male mold, and coated with epoxy. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Propulsion">Propulsion</h2></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951" /><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">See also: <a href="/wiki/Marine_propulsion" title="Marine propulsion">Marine propulsion</a></div> <p>The most common means of boat propulsion are as follows: </p> <ul><li>Engine <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Inboard_motor" title="Inboard motor">Inboard motor</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Stern_drive" class="mw-redirect" title="Stern drive">Stern drive</a> (Inboard/outboard)</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Outboard_motor" title="Outboard motor">Outboard motor</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Paddle_wheel" title="Paddle wheel">Paddle wheel</a></li> <li>Water jet (<a href="/wiki/Jetboat" title="Jetboat">jetboat</a>, <a href="/wiki/Personal_water_craft" class="mw-redirect" title="Personal water craft">personal water craft</a>)</li> <li>Fan (<a href="/wiki/Hovercraft" title="Hovercraft">hovercraft</a>, <a href="/wiki/Air_boat" class="mw-redirect" title="Air boat">air boat</a>)</li></ul></li> <li>Man (<a href="/wiki/Watercraft_rowing" class="mw-redirect" title="Watercraft rowing">rowing</a>, <a href="/wiki/Watercraft_paddling" class="mw-redirect" title="Watercraft paddling">paddling</a>, <a href="/wiki/Setting_pole" title="Setting pole">setting pole</a> etc.)</li> <li>Wind (<a href="/wiki/Sail" title="Sail">sailing</a>)</li></ul> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Buoyancy">Buoyancy</h2></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951" /><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/Buoyancy" title="Buoyancy">Buoyancy</a></div> <p>A boat <a href="/wiki/Displacement_(fluid)" title="Displacement (fluid)">displaces</a> its weight in water, regardless whether it is made of wood, steel, fiberglass, or even concrete.
