If you want the player to take controll of the boat when they step on to it (GTA-style?) I would suggest a trigger over the top of the boat that waits for a key-press. When the trigger is activated it would shift user control from the player to the boat.
Thats how i've considered approaching the problem before but I've never gotten to try it...

My uneducated guess would be to look at the race-car demo to see how to create a vehicle you can controll. Then fix up the density on your water and any weight/buoyancy variables on the boat if any to make it float. If you want the player to take controll of the boat when they step on to it (GTA-style?) I would suggest a trigger over the top of the boat that waits for a key-press. When the trigger is activated it would shift user control from the player to the boat.

not sure but i think i recall making the player float in H20 that way.
