A ferry (or ferryboat) is a boat or ship (a merchant vessel) used to carry (or ferry) primarily passengers, and sometimes vehicles and cargo as well, across a body of water. Most ferries operate on regular, frequent, return services. A passenger ferry with many stops, such as in Venice, Italy, is sometimes called a water bus or water taxi.
Ferries form a part of the public transport systems of many waterside cities and islands, allowing direct transit between points at a capital cost much lower than bridges or tunnels. However, ship connections of much larger distances (such as over long distances in water bodies like the Mediterranean Sea) may also be called ferry services, especially if they carry vehicles.
The profession of the ferryman is embodied in Greek mythology in Charon, the boatman who transported souls across the River Styx to the Underworld.
Speculation that a pair of oxen propelled a ship having a water wheel can be found in 4th century Roman literature "Anonymus De Rebus Bellicis". Though impractical, there is no reason why it could not work and such a ferry, modified by using horses, was used in Lake Champlain in 19th-century America. See "When Horses Walked on Water: Horse-Powered Ferries in Nineteenth-Century America" (Smithsonian Institution Press; Kevin Crisman, co-authored with Arthur Cohn, Executive Director of the Lake Champlain Maritime Museum). See Experiment (horse powered boat).

세월호 미수습자 선내수색 개시, 유류품 속속 나와 The long-delayed search for the nine passengers who are still missing after the Sewol-ho ferry sank three years ago... finally got underway today. Workers are clearing debris and creating access points for nine teams that go inside the ship, now on a dock in Mokpo. Hwang Hojun has the latest. When the Sewol-ho ferry sank in 2014, 304 people died... and nine are still considered missing. Just over three years later, a search for them inside the salvaged hull of the ship has finally begun. On Tuesday, eight investigators entered the wreckage of the Sewol-ho around 1pm to look for the remains of four students, two teachers, two adults, and a young child. Less than 2 hours later, the search team had already found a number of left-behind articles, including c...

On this episode of the Axel Show, Axel and his Daddy are back at the beach with their construction trucks! They use their toy bulldozer truck to dig out a surprise from the sand. It is a Green Toys ferry boat! They use their other toy construction trucks to dig out a lake for the boat to float in, and a channel for it to sail out to the ocean! Digging with trucks is so much fun! We love making construction truck videos for children, and bulldozer videos for children! We know kids love to watch construction trucks working.

Avec son vaste garage, le ferry est capable d'engloutir 1 km de voitures et 1800 passagers. Et quand il faut une heure à un navire de commerce traditionnel pour sortir du port, le ferry n'a besoin que de dix minutes. Pour nous expliquer le fonctionnement de ce " bac à voiture ", Fred et Jamy nous emmènent à Calais, où se trouve le port de fret le plus important de France. A bord d'un ferry, Fred nous explique tout sur les manœuvres du bateau et les règles de sécurité qui sont de rigueur à bord. Dans son camion-laboratoire, Jamy nous éclaire notamment sur les règles physiques qui assurent la stabilité et la sécurité du navire
