“The Boat” is a 1921 American silent short comedy film directed by Buster Keaton and Edward F. Cline. The story follows Keaton’s character as he builds a homemade boat named "The Damfino" inside his house—only to realize it’s too large to fit through the door. As he attempts to launch the boat, disaster strikes, leading to a series of comedic misadventures at sea. The film is packed with Keaton’s signature physical comedy, clever sight gags, and inventive stunts, making it one of his most memorable short films.
