Good question, the boat represents the church, the net is the infallible word of God, the sea represented death. The 153 fish represents the fact that God assures the elect that He or His net will save us from death or the sea and He tells us He will alone do that which the church or the boat never could do. Save us from our sins.

The same as it is in society in general - a small vessel used for traveling on water. In nautical terms, a boat can 'fit' on a ship. Think of a submarine (U-boat) as it can fit on a larger ship - like a carrier or mega tanker.
