I don't understand what you're asking, so I'll reply based on the literal meaning of your question.
One way to change the overall density of a boat is to take it apart and make it out of a material with a different density.
You could just add ballast or cargo.

Why does changing shape of an object dose not change the density?
Changing the shape CAN change the density. If you change it into a smaller shape, then you increase the density. However the mass will not change.
Why coins sink in the water but not an apple?
Metal is denser than the water thats why it sinks, but boats are designed to be floated in water dosent matter its iron or wooden boat. Its because of a certain law called Archimedes' principle. It states that "the liquid displaced by the object is equals to the weight of that object". The overall density of the boat is less than water.
How does a heavy boat floats on water?
They have strong wood, and are mechanical crates to lift them aboard.
What is an object's overall change in position called?
Displacement is the overall change in position
How does the density of the metal in the crushed can compare with the density of the metal before the can was crushed?
The density of the metal doesn't change when you crush a can.
Can boats float?
Only if the overall density of the boat is less than the medium in which it is placed.
How does a steel boat float and a flat piece of steel with the same mass sinks?
There is air in the boat so the overall density is less. The weight is spread out.
What is the loa of a boat?
It is the "overall" lenght of the boat.
What is the density of your average boat?
That question has no answer, because I don't own a boat. But regarding any boat in general, if the boat is afloat, then its density is less than 1.0 .
How can you change the overall density of an object?
In a simple way, since density = mass /volume, the density of an object can be changed by changing either mass or volume of an object .
When water fills a submarines flotation tanks the overall density of the submarine does what?
the overall density goes up.
Why do boats with water sink?
When the density of entire assembly (boat, peoples, products, equipments, water etc.) has a density greater then the water density the boat is sinking.
What is more dense a steel boat or a block of steel?
A solid block of steel would be more dense than a boat made of steel. This is because even though the density of the material, steel, is constant, the form makes a difference to the overall density. The block of steel essentially contains nothing but steel, whereas the steel boat is "hollow" and contains air, as well as other construction materials such as wood.
What part of the boat makes it float?
The boat floats because the entire boat - including any air contained within - has a total density less than the density of the water.
How does a boat not sink?
the boat has equal or less density than the water. :P
Why is the variation in overall density of Pakistan?
Pakistan's population density is 214/km2.
How does changing the shape of the metal affect the density of the boat?
Indeed yes. Density is defined as mass per unit volume. If all the mass were concentrated in one lump, your boat would no longer float. If the metal walls of the boat were a little thinner, you'd have more boat volume, and lower density.
