Boat rides such as "Pirates of the Caribbean" or "It's a Small World" are just as their name suggests...each ride vehicle is a free-floating boat set inside of a set of "tracks" that keep the boat on coarse.

They are propelled by the water current set by a series of pumps hidden along the ride path. This causes the boats to gently float past each scene without becoming a danger to the riders.

Additionally, each load/unload area has a conveyer belt that lifts the boat out of the water and bring it to a complete stop. This allows the boat to be fully stopped when passengers enter and exit the boat.
