Ships were traditionally made of wood because it was abundant, readily available, and relatively easy to work with using the technology of the time. Wood is also buoyant and flexible, which made it suitable for constructing vessels that could withstand the stresses of ocean travel. Additionally, wooden ships could be crafted using basic tools and techniques, allowing for a variety of designs and sizes to meet different needs. Over time, advancements in materials and technology led to the transition to metal and other materials for shipbuilding.
