What unit of measure would you use to measure the length of a boat?

Answer 1

The length of a rowing boat may only be 6 feet. A large yacht may have a length of 100 feet.

Of the two units of length given, then yards is more appropriate.

In practice, the length of a boat is given in feet or metres.

Answer 2

It depends on what aspect of the rowboat you wanted to measure: its length, its mass, its displacement or perhaps its density.
