Boat games are about life on the water: pirate battles with broadsides, naval fights between destroyers, sailing to trade, racing across waves, or a slow ride down a river. Some are online, where whole fleets of players meet at sea; others are single-player voyages or quick arcade games. They run in your browser with no download.
