My story is entitled Jerry Somebody voyage on a boat to an Island.

Once upon a time Jerry Somebody took a voyage on a long journey on a boat. A boat voyage means any movement of a boat that originates from or terminates in a port of call and that serves the purpose of transporting passengers or cargo for some commercial purposes.

Also a boat  'voyage' means any movement of a ship that originates from or terminates in a port of call and that serves the purpose of transporting passengers or cargo for commercial purposes.

Jerry Somebody took a journey, travel, or passage, especially one to a distant land by sea. The journey that was taken on the boat to a distant Island by Jerry Somebody was an expedition that happens to be a long journey organized for a particular purpose especially to a dangerous distant place which happens to be an Island.

Jerry Somebody spent his youth voyaging around the globe.

A voyage plan or passage plan is a comprehensive guide, developed and used by a vessel's bridge team to determine the most favourable route, to identify potential problems or hazards along the route, and to adopt bridge management practices to ensure the vessel's safe passage.

As part of living on a boat, maritime culture is deeply ingrained in the Sea program. It is important you understand the basic language, terminology and the culture of what it is like to be a part of a community. Our academics, experiential learning opportunities reflects our continued efforts to ensure that students partake on a study abroad opportunity unlike any other program. Also, for this reason, we refer to the extent of the trip as a Voyage, rather than a cruise. Also, one of the Sea’s program goals is to produce globalized citizens who are continuously aware of international population long after their voyage has ended. While sailing, our students are exposed to some of the most diverse regions, populations, cultures and languages, thus making them the true travellers. The space that Jerry Somebody slept, studied and hanged out in is called the cabin part of the boat.

Each day that the ship is at sea, classes are divided into A or B days, which alternate. Days at sea are best used to complete readings and course work. As part of your course curriculum, these required, in country classes provide you the opportunity to merge the classroom learned concepts to experiences in the real world. Optional In-Country Programs gives one the opportunity to engage with locals, see major sites or participate in a unique learning opportunity. When you choose not to participate with In-Country Programs, the time spent in port is up to you. Whether you want to wander a new city, eat new food and explore a culture on your own terms, it is important to keep in mind that Semester at Sea is not responsible for any third-party planned travel expeditions. It was only Jerry Somebody who took an expedition to an Island during his leisure time.

The boat is also the method of travel, it is also your home. While in the port, the boat is always available for you to eat, sleep, plan or reflect in it. Jerry Somebody often eats, sleeps and plans in the boat. It is valuable to know that you always have a safe place to come home to after your in-country travels. While on board meals are always included in the traveling. Meals are served as buffet style at specific times of each day. There are also snack bars and a grill with food and drink items available for purchase for the whole day on a boat. The amount of access you will have on the boat with the technology at sea is always limited. It is important to set some realistic expectations. Internet is then available, but it is slow and costly.

Jerry Somebody knew about some of the basics, it was also important to have the right mentality for a voyage around the world. The Flexibility is a key component to handling the often-stressful situations that you may encounter as the boat sails from port to port and as you then explore some new territory as in the instance of Jerry Somebody. Having then an open and engaging mentality will help you make the most of your voyage or traveling at sea as an experience. Most alumni will tell you to take half of what you think you need. It is also important to be prepared for most situations, for your classes, but also to be away from loved ones. Packing is an individual task, but take a look at our packing list to get some ideas for what you might need. The boat is a large watercraft that travels the world's oceans and other sufficiently deep waterways, carrying goods or passengers, in support of specialized missions, such as defense, research, and fishing. Boats are generally distinguished from ships based on size, shape, load capacity, and tradition. Boats are generally smaller than ships, but there is no universally accepted distinction between the two. Boats generally can remain at sea for longer periods of time than ships. A legal definition of a boat is a vessel that carries goods by sea. A common notion is that a ship can carry a boat, but not vice versa.

In most maritime traditions boats have names, and modern boats may belong to a class. named after its first ship. Small boats are typically found on inland waterways such as rivers and lakes, or in some protected coastal areas. However, some boats, such as the Whale boat, were intended for use in an offshore environment. In modern naval terms, a boat is a vessel small enough to be carried aboard a ship. Boats vary in proportion and construction methods with their intended purpose, available materials, or local traditions. Boats have been used since prehistoric times and remain in use throughout the world for transportation, fishing, and sports. Fishing boats vary widely in style partly to match some local conditions. The Pleasure craft used in recreational boating include ski boats, pontoon boats, and sailboats. Also, House boats may be used for vacationing or long-term residence. The Lighters are used to convey cargo to and from large ships unable to get close to shore. These Lifeboats have rescue and safety functions. Boats can be propelled by manpower that is rowboats and paddle boats, wind and motor including gasoline, diesel and electric.

Also, Boats have served as transportation for Jerry Somebody since time immemorial . The canoe is another kind of boat. Boats played an important role in the commerce between the Indus Valley civilization and the Mesapotamia. Evidence of varying models of boats has also been discovered at various Indus Valley archaeological sites. The ancient Arabs and Greeks used such boats as trading vessels. The historians Herondotus, Pliny the Elder and Strabo recorded the use of boats for commerce, travel, and military purposes as in the instance of Jerry Somebody. Most Boats has sails in Bangladesh.

Also, most Boats can be categorized into three main types:

1. Unpowered or human-powered. Unpowered craft include rafts meant for one-way downstream travel. Human-powered boats include canoes, kayaks, gondolas and boats propelled by poles like a punt.
2. Sail boats, propelled mainly by means of sails.
3. Motorboats propelled by mechanical means, such as engines.

The hull is the main, and in some cases only, structural component of a boat. It provides both capacity and buoyancy. The keel is a boat's "backbone", a lengthwise structural member to which the perpendicular frames are fixed. On most boats a deck covers the hull, in part or whole. While a ship often has several decks, a boat is unlikely to have more than one. Above the deck are often lifelines connected to stanchions, bulwarks perhaps topped by gunnels, or some combination of the two. A cabin may protrude above the deck forward, aft, along the centreline, or covering much of the length of the boat. Vertical structures dividing the internal spaces are known as bulkheads. The forward end of a boat is called the bow, the aft end is the stern. Facing forward the right side is referred to as starboard and the left side is the port.

Many boats had been built with iron or steel frames but still planked in wood. In 1855 the ferro-cement 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. Reinforced with bulkheads and other internal structure it is strong but heavy, easily repaired, and, if sealed properly, will not leak or corrode.

A boat then displaces its weight in water, regardless whether it is made of wood, steel, fiberglass, or even concrete. If weight is added to the boat, the volume of the hull drawn below the waterline will increase to keep the balance above and below the surface equal. Boats have a natural or designed level of buoyancy. Exceeding it will cause the boat first to ride lower in the water, second to take on water more readily than when properly loaded, and ultimately, if overloaded by any combination of structure, cargo, and water, sink.

The Class A - the boat may safely navigate any waters. With the Class B - the boat is limited to offshore navigation. (Winds up to Force 8 & waves up to 4 metres). Also, with Class C - the boat is limited to inshore (coastal) navigation. (Winds up to Force 6 & waves up to 2 metres). Again, with Class D - the boat is limited to rivers, canals and small lakes.

Jerry Somebody often sails on the Class C boat, which is limited to the inshore coastal navigation winds up to force 6 and waves up to 2metres.

Finally, Jerry Somebody travelled on a boat to an Island, he even slept and ate in that boat. It was in that boat that he had his quiet time. It is only the boat that serves as a means of transportation on sea, rivers and lakes for tourist to visit and have an experience with the boat ride.
