The Work Boat is a classless unit in Civilization IV.
Strategy[]
The Work Boat is a non-combat unit which can build tile improvements on the sea. It cannot enter ocean spaces outside one's own cultural borders until Astronomy has been researched.
The Work Boat is consumed upon use, so multiple Work Boats are needed to improve multiple tiles.
Civilopedia entry[]
A work boat is a vessel designed to perform useful tasks at sea. Work boats come in a variety of forms, depending upon their particular employment - from simple fishing boats designed to deploy nets and lobster pots to small but powerful tugboats to mighty icebreakers to massive vessels capable of moving an entire oil platform.
