A type of boat of very simple design. Characterized by a flat bottom, tapered up at the bow and stern, with a rectangular plan form. Generally symmetrical in appearance, it may have a rudder at the stern, be of nearly any size and can be powered by just about anything ever used on a boat, from oars to sails to steam and internal combustion engines. Many barges are essentially un-powered scows.
