Steamboat is a ship driven by steam engine. It was the product of the industrial revolution. The first one to build a steamboat was the French inventor Geoffrey. In 1769, he built the world's first steamboat, the "piros CAFI", and started it with a steam engine. Later, the Englishman shermington built a steamboat in 1802. Unfortunately, none of them has been applied in practice.
