The first canal boat is believed to have been the Grand Canal of China which was constructed in 486 BC. It was around 1100 km in length and connected the Yellow and Yangtze rivers. It was built as part of the oldest artificial waterway system in the world and was used for a variety of purposes including transportation irrigation and flood control.
The boat itself was made of wood and was designed to be light and flat-bottomed. It was propelled by poles and oars and could carry up to five tons of cargo. It also had a cabin for passengers and a rudder for steering. The boat was very efficient and economical and was used for centuries until the advent of steamboats in the 19th century.
