Line 981:
:::::If the defining feature of a ship is purpose, and that purpose is transportation, then the USS Kitty Hawk isn't a ship either. (Being an aircraft carrier, its primary purpose is to fight - does this put it in the same category with Madison Square?)[[User:PiCo|PiCo]] 07:48, 7 April 2007 (UTC) (Why did you post without your name attached?)
Wikipedia's definitions: "A [[ship]] is a large watercraft capable of deep water navigation" + "A [[watercraft]] is a vehicle, vessel or craft designed to move across (or through) water for pleasure, recreation, physical exercise, commerce, transport of people and goods, and military missions", so Noah's Ark should be counted as ship (and, by the way, it doesn't
contradict purpose of transportation. Not known whereto, but transportation is obvious). [[User:217.198.224.13|217.198.224.13]] 10:12, 7 April 2007 (UTC)
