These vessels all conform to the technical description of a Rowing Boat. Minor, descriptive, items might change slightly, but the numbers don't. You do not need any specialized boat building facilities to build any of these vessels. However, you will need appropriate craft or survival skills. You find these vessels wherever there are harbours, jetties or even just beaches, and they are probably the most common waterborne vessels in the world. While they are called Rowboats, some are fitted with sails as well. Small boats cost 50gp, unless otherwise noted.

Sanpans are light, flat-bottomed boats, that are particularly effective on very shallow and slow running water - such as marshes, swamps, shallow rivers or creeks. They are normally poled, but can also be paddled or rowed if required.

These vessels all conform to the technical description of a Ship's Boat. Minor, descriptive, items might change slightly, but the numbers don't. Large open boats used for transporting people and cargo across short distances. They can all cope with short trips into ocean waters, but are generally used coastal or inland waters. They are not, normally, used for long trips as there is no cabin space, but all can survive at sea, for quite a while, if they are required to. Large boats cost 500gp, unless otherwise noted.

Vessel	Notes
	Ship's Boats can be propelled by up to ten oars and are generally used to transport crew and passengers from ship to shore. Larger ships use longboats as tenders and lifeboats. Large vessels may be known as Cutters, with smaller vessels are known as a Jolly Boat.
	A Dory is a high sided fishing boat that is used for lake, estuary and coastal fishing. They rarely sail a long way out to sea.
	Whalers are double-ended with space at both ends for the harpooner to cast securely. They are fitted with special crossbeams that allow the whale to 'tow' the boat, without pulling it to pieces.
	A Riverboat follows the same design philosophy, but is much larger than the other boats in this category at 30ft by 15ft. It carries more cargo (10 tons), costs 1000gp, but only uses the same number of crew. It has a small cabin, but is not designed for open water, and would founder at sea. While it can be rowed, a riverboat relies on its sail for propulsion.
	A Lighter is larger than other vessels in this category, at about 30×15, but is built very differently. It is flat-bottomed has no masts or cabin, and can only be moved at speed 10, using long sweeps. Lighters are used for moving cargo around in harbours and ports, it can carry 20 tons of cargo and costs 500gp

These vessels all conform to the technical description of a Keelboat. Minor, descriptive, items might change slightly, but the numbers don't. Keelboats are the vessels of small scale merchants or successful fishermen, and all have specific adaptions that make them suitable for a particular role. They are much less effective when they are used for other roles. All keelboats are about 60 feet long and 15-20 feet wide. Keelboats cost 3000gp, unless otherwise noted.

Vessel	Notes
	Jong conform to the standard Keelboat description, except that they have battened sails, only need a crew of five and have a slightly larger cabin. They can sail in coastal water and are used as fishing boats, as well as merchant vessels. - Jong are vessels from Sinan

These vessels all conform to the technical description of a Junk. Minor, descriptive, items might change slightly, but the numbers don't. Vessels in this class have a shallow draught, stacked stern and a single cargo deck. True junks need fewer crew becasus eiof their sail design, although others need larger crews to handle more complex sails.. They cost 15,000 gp, unless otherwise noted.

Vessel	Notes
	Junk are the classic eastern sailing ships. They are capable of long ocean voyages, but they can be uncomfortable in deep waters and strong winds. While they only have one cargo deck, but are often built with stacked cabins at the stern. Junks are vessels from Sinan.

These vessels all conform to the technical description of a Warship. Minor, descriptive, items might change slightly, but the numbers don't. Warships are large vessels, equipped with both oars and a sail, that carry a large crew, many siege weapons and up to 100 marines. They do not travel well across open seas and are generally deployed in shallow waters, as part of a local navy. They cost 25,000 gp, unless otherwise noted.

That only real difference between different types of Warship are the cabin and sail arrangements, so I have added a few images to give you an idea of styles.

These vessels all conform to the technical description of a Galley. Minor, descriptive, items might change slightly, but the numbers don't. Galleys are colossal vessels, equipped with both oars and a sail, that carry a large crew, up to 200 marines, many siege weapons, and are among the fastest vessels on the seas. They do not travel well across open seas and are generally deployed in shallow waters, as part of a local navy. Bigger than Warships, they cost 30,000 gp, unless otherwise noted.
