Boats Dream Symbols:

May symbolize some aspect of the feminine, either with a plainly sexual reference or with reference to the unconscious. May symbolize transition if the boat is crossing a narrow stretch of water. If in a dream you miss the boat, you have failed to take advantage of an opportunity that offered itself to you.

Boats

Basic Meaning: A boat often symbolizes an aspect of the feminine, a reference to the unconscious.

(1) Because of their connections with water, boats may symbolize (some aspect of) the feminine, either with a plainly sexual reference or with reference to the unconscious (in the case of a male dreamer, the reference may be specifically to the anima), (See Anima/Animus or with reference to mother or Great Mother.

(2) Leaving one's own shores for a foreign country may symbolize entry into the unconscious insofar as the latter is unknown and frightening - alien, in fact.

(3) If the boat is crossing a narrow stretch of water, it may symbolize some type of transition: for example, moving from one phase of life to another, or making a new start and a clean break from the past.

(4) If in the dream you miss the boat, the meaning would seem to be obvious: you have failed to take advantage of an opportunity that has offered itself - perhaps an opportunity to open new vistas in your life.

Eric Ackroyd

Example in a Dream

You are in a boat drifting far from shore with sharks swimming all around you.

Possible meaning for a male: The boat would be an anima symbol representing the feminine aspects of the male psyche {compassion, tolerance, patience, ready to forgive}. Drifting far from shore would mean you are drifting away from these unifying feminine aspects. The sharks may represent those other internal aspects that want to assail you {in order to force you back to shore} or other people or circumstances in your waking life that are causing you to drift away from the natural feminine tendencies.

Possible meaning for a female: For a woman the meaning may have the same interpretation, you are drifting away from those essential feminine aspects. But it may also symbolize that you are moving away from those negative aspects {sharks} that can prevent you from an understanding of a higher self {the Great Mother}. It also may be a reference to your actual mother, an unconscious need or desire to move away from her destructive {sharks} attitudes. the meaning may have the same

Boats: Encyclopedia - Clinker boat building

Clinker building is a method of constructing hulls of boats and ships by fixing wooden planks and in the early nineteenth century, iron plates to each other so that the planks overlap along their edges. The overlapping joint is called a land. In any but a very small boat, the planks will be joined also, end to end. The whole length of one of these composite planks is a strake. The technique developed in northern Europe and was successfully used by the Vikings. The construction method is known in some places as lapstrake.

Boats: Encyclopedia - Type XIV U-boat

The Type XIV U-boat was a modification of the Type IXD, designed to resupply other U-boats. Because they were nicknamed "Milchkuh/Milchkühe (pl.)" (milk cows), a common name for them was milchcow. They had no offensive weaponry, only antiaircraft guns. In the middle part of World War II, the Milk Cows successfully allowed the smaller Type VIIC boats to raid the American coast during the "second happy time". The milk cows were of course a priority target for all Allied forces, and improved radar and air coverage eliminated them during 1943. Milk cow duty was especially hazardous; 289 sailors were ...
