Ferry or gondola
I believe the answer is:
boat
This clue is a double definition.
'ferry' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)
'gondola' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)
(Other definitions for boat that I've seen before include "Water (or gravy) vessel" , "See 12 Down" , "Small vessel" , "Vessel for travelling on water" , "Water transport" .)
