How can you distinguish boat, ship and a yacht?

| Boat You can fit a boat inside a ship, but not a ship inside a boat. Boats are usually small specialized vessels. | Yacht Vessel used mainly for pleasure and entertainment | Ship Relatively large size, and for commercial use |
Yet, the word “yacht” derives from the Dutch word “jacht”, which means chase or hunt. In fact jachtships were pirate-ships. Then, who knows maybe Somalian pirates indeed chase ships with pleasure:)
Somalians did chase the ships with pleasure, but they were not successful with the Russian tanker...they even couldn't reach the Somalia...
Good news! It is one of the few cases, when bullets make sense.
Dozens of protesters demanding immediate end to the 33-year rule of President Ali Abdullah Saleh were injured by police gunshots and tear gas on Friday in southern province of Taiz Golf Clubs, witnesses said.
