People have been sailing in some form for thousands of years. The Ancient Chinese even had battle ships with flame throwers in the bow. The Greeks and Romans sailed along Coastlines for trade and the Vikings explored vast distances by sailing. For each sail it took 4 years to weave. The Nile River has been used for centuries to move people and goods. Much of the blocks of stone for the pyramids and for Stonehenge were moved by ships.
