How to Draw a Great Looking Simple Boat for Kids and Beginners - Step 1
1. Begin the simple boat outline by drawing a curved line. This is the top of the water. Extend two curved lines upward and connect them with a long curved line to enclose the hull of the boat.
Drawing Step 2
2. Draw two lines from the top of the hull and connect them with a long curved line. This is a cabin on the boat’s deck. Enclose two rectangular windows on the side of the cabin.

3. Draw two long, straight lines upward from the cabin. Allow them to meet at a point high above the boat.
This is the mast on which a sail will hang. Extend two lines sideways from the mast just above the cabin. Allow the lines to meet at a rounded point. This is called the boom.

4. Extend another pair of lines on the opposite side of the mast and allow them to connect. Then, draw the headsail, a big, curved triangle between the mast and the first boom.
Drawing Step 5
5. Draw the triangular mainsail between the mast and the boom. Then, begin drawing a pennant or flag at the top of the mast. Use a long curved line.
Drawing Step 6
6. Finish the pennant, using long and short curved lines to complete its triangular shape. Then, draw a curved line parallel to the top of the boat’s hull.
Drawing Step 7
7. Decorate the headsail with horizontal stripes. Then draw a curved horizon line passing behind the boat. Often, sailboats have white hulls and brightly colored sails.

Learn More About The Simple Boat Drawing
You can go sailing without ever leaving home. This simple boat drawing guide can take you there.
Sailboats are among the most elegant types of boats. Their triangular sails can look like clouds on the horizon, or they can tease onlookers with playful colors.
Many boat drawings and even children's toys depict sailboats. They're one of the oldest types of sailing ships since they are powered by the wind.
Did you know? Sailboats typically only have one boom-supported sail, the mainsail. The headsail—the one at the front—is connected to the front of the ship instead.
