They were faster and lasted longer.
Steamboats were an improvement over flatboats primarily because they were powered by steam engines, allowing for greater speed and the ability to travel upstream against strong river currents. Unlike flatboats, which relied on wind or manual labor for propulsion, steamboats could navigate more efficiently and consistently, expanding trade routes and access to inland markets. Additionally, steamboats offered more cargo capacity and improved safety, as they were less susceptible to damage from obstacles in the water. Overall, steamboats revolutionized transportation on rivers, facilitating economic growth and development in the regions they served.
Yes it was.
The advantages of steamboats over horse traveling was that steamboats were much faster and cheaper.
It was an improvement over earlier burners used to provide heat in chemical laboratories.

For one thing, steamboats used up considerable energy, which affected the environment-- they needed lots of wood for the steam engine to function. They also were not very safe: fires were always a concern because the steamboats often carried flammable cargo, and boiler room explosions (caused by a build-up of too much pressure) happened far too often. And while the steamboat was an improvement over previous types of transport, it only went about eight miles an hour downstream, and less than five miles an hour upstream.

The M16. The M16 entered production in 1960. The M4 entered production in 1984, and was an improvement over the earlier XM-177 carbines.
Because the boats irritate them.
