What does SCHUIT mean in Scrabble?
noun
historicalnautical
A Dutch flat-bottomed barge-like boat used on canals, rivers and shallow coastal waters.
Schuit is a Dutch word taken straight into English nautical writing, where it names the broad, shallow-draught craft that carried goods through the Low Countries. Its flat hull let it move in water too shallow for deeper ships, and it often had leeboards at the sides for steering under sail. The variant spelling schuyt is also recorded, and English writers sometimes used the Anglicised word scout in the same sense.
