The type of weeds used to build boats, particularly in traditional practices, are often referred to as "bulrushes" or "reeds." These aquatic plants, such as common bulrush (Schoenoplectus lacustris) and various species of reeds, have been utilized for their buoyancy and flexibility in boat construction, especially in regions like Africa and the Arctic. Their lightweight and durable characteristics make them suitable for crafting small vessels.
