George Washington acquired the boats for the famous crossing of the Delaware River from various sources, including local boat builders and merchants in Pennsylvania and New Jersey. Many of the boats were small rowboats and ferries, which were gathered quickly in the days leading up to the operation. Washington's troops also used some of the boats that were already in the area, showcasing his resourcefulness in mobilizing the necessary equipment for the surprise attack on the Hessian forces in Trenton.

What to do when two power boats are crossing paths?
When two power boats are crossing paths, the "rule of the road" applies: the boat on the right (starboard side) has the right of way. The other boat should yield by altering its course to avoid a collision. If both boats are on a collision course, the vessel that is not on the right should take action to steer clear. Always maintain vigilance and communicate with other boaters to ensure safety.
