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.

Why doesn't changing an object's shape or size affect it's density?

No, size doesn't affect an object's shape because it's the same unit and material.


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.
