'''Boats''' are an informal community nickname for the [[support area]] [[possession]]s {{Card|Ships of Great Draught}}, {{Card|Corsair War Galley}}, and {{Card|Black Sails of Umbar}}. These possessions allow {{C|Raider}} decks{{--}}particularly [[Corsair]] decks{{--}}to easily [[cycle]] out unneeded cards and [[recur]] useful cards from the [[discard pile]]. Every [[Corsair]] deck uses all three of these cards, and Ships of Great Draught and/or Corsair War Galley are also useful with other {{C|Raider}} subcultures like [[Easterling]]s and [[Southron]]s. Plus, these cards are so strong for cycling and recursion that they're occasionally combined with other cultures for [[Rainbow|multicultural]] decks like [[Moria Navy]].

These cards were first introduced in [[King Block]], and are ubiquitous in [[Movie Block]]. Because they are support area possessions, relatively few cards can [[Removal|remove]] these cards. Notable cards in [[Movie Block]] to deal with them include {{Card|Blood Runs Chill}}, {{Card|Galadriel, Lady Redeemed}}, {{Card|Roll of Thunder}}, {{Card|Arrow-slits}}, and {{Card|Derufin}}.

The {{C|Raider}} boat cards do not work with later Shadow cards due to a [[Culture#Post-Shadows_Shadow_cultures|reshuffling of Shadow cultures]]. They also run into some very strong [[Hate|counter]]s in later formats, such as {{Card|Throne of Minas Tirith}} and {{Card|Narsil, Forged by Telchar}}. As such, they're much less popular or common after Movie Block.


Not to be confused with {{Card|Fishing Boat}}, which is chiefly played in [[Solo Smeagol]].
