Boats are among Allah's blessings, to be used in His obedience. Extravagance in them is reprehensible and may even be forbidden. Extravagance includes choosing luxurious types, acquiring many without need, renewing them without cause, neglecting their maintenance, striving for an elaborate appearance, not using them properly, and increasing their engine power unnecessarily. The further removed the reason for the increase is from people's needs, the stronger the inclination towards prohibition.
