BIG BOAT
This element is available in blue with a gray top, which opens up some interesting possibilities for Classic Space MOCs.
A ship with a lot of studs for building space, does that make it a Spaceship ?
BoAt
The Prison Island boat: we had great fun with this subtheme after playing the Chase McCain video games. I think it’s one of the few subthemes we completed.
Police boat!!! I can’t believe I never picked up a police boat. Just cargo and pleasure boats.

Small Boat...... Big Shoe.
@TheOtherMike:
Space Battleship Yamato has undergone some aggressive budget cuts, I see.
Other than 48x48 baseplates, what is the longest single piece? Is it this at 40 studs long?

That's a relatively small boat compared to https://brickset.com/parts/design-59278 Ship 72X4X18, Assembled
I loved when Captain America finally got to name this piece in Endgame
Like most of it, not crazy about the 'lip' in the front. I like it more when the front contours 'smoothly' w/the bow, not angled and segmented.
serious question: if i put two of these stern-to-stern, would i have the beginnings of a passible cargo ship?

7016 , 79013 and 60266 did that but the problem will be to connect them smoothly.
You do get some lenght but you will still lack the width
@PDelahanty these are also bigger https://brickset.com/parts/design-54093

I understood that reference.
I'm glad it's back again in blue in 2021 as two of them would make a really cool Catamaran.
And it FLOATS!

A ship is not the same as a SHIP (Seriously Huge Investment in Parts)...
