royal barge
King's ceremonial boat
A royal barge is an ornate ceremonial boat used by monarchs for state occasions, processions, or travel on rivers and waterways.
These vessels are typically elaborately decorated and propelled by oarsmen rather than sails or engines.
Thailand's royal barges, used in Buddhist festivals, and the British royal barge Gloriana are well-known examples.
The royal barge glided down the Thames during the jubilee celebrations.
