How does a boat float without sinking?

The weight of the boat displaces the same weight of water, and while there is still sides of the boat above the surface, the boat will float.

Usually, water-tight compartments, light, floating material, and any wood in the boat's construction, will help prevent the boat sinking entirely, if at all.
