The base reading of Boat
A boat in a dream is the dictionary's smaller image, compared to the ship — a single relationship or project that holds you above feeling. A two-person boat is the dictionary's image of a partnership; the state of the boat is the state of the partnership.
Where you often see it. A small boat on a quiet lake. A two-person boat with you and someone else. The dream uses the boat for a smaller emotional vessel — a relationship or project that holds you above feeling.
What it is not. A boat is not the ship's smaller version. The dictionary reads them as different scales of emotional container.
Related in the dictionary. Read boat with ship, water, lake, sea, and any scene of small floating engagement with feeling.
