seafreight

Seafreight is a way of shipping goods from one place to another using boats. Boats travel through waterways and oceans, and can carry lots of different goods like food, clothes, and furniture. Companies put goods in big containers and load them onto a boat. The boat then takes the containers to the port where it is going, and the goods are unloaded. It often takes a long time for ships to travel, but it is a very good way of shipping goods quickly and cheaply.
