A boat is called a "sandsucker" because it is designed to dredge and collect sand or sediment from the bottom of rivers, lakes, or coastal areas. These vessels typically use suction mechanisms to extract material, making the process efficient for construction, land reclamation, or maintaining navigable waterways. The term reflects the boat's primary function of "sucking" up sand from the substrate.
