By definition a "boat" is a term to describe a maritime vessel to transport
cargo and people. In the stock world when you "throw a boat" at a trade you are in essence placing a stock trade in the magnitude of a normal persons
yearly salary. To describe the magnitude of a trade, a person could name a type of boat to indicate the
actual size of a trade.
