Used for different type of boating routes, scope is not quite clear and there seems to be overlap with other, frequently used tags such as route=motorboat, route=canoe, route=ferry (for instance for regular passenger transport Germany), and route=waterway (for instance for large scale waterway routes in the United States).
Furthermore, the use of the term boat=* for a passenger transport service is confusing, because in established OSM-terms) this means pleasure crafts (small boats); for large commercial vessels the term 
ship=* is used instead.
