Sailboat Drawing

Drawing a sailboat can be super fun! It's like going on an exciting adventure with your art. First, imagine your perfect sailing ship – fast and sleek or a cool pirate ship. Then, you use a pencil to draw it on paper.

As you sketch the boat's shape and sails, you feel the joy of creating something amazing. It's like being the captain of your own artistic journey, where every stroke of the pencil guides you to a masterpiece.

But the fun doesn't stop there! You can make your sailboat unique. Add bright colors to the sails and create a beautiful ocean background with waves.

Benefits of Drawing

Drawing is a fantastic activity for kids that comes with many benefits. When you draw, you get to show off your creative ideas and feelings. It helps you improve your small hand movements, like holding a pencil or doing other tasks.

Drawing also makes your eyes and hands work together better. When you draw things around you, it helps you notice details and shapes more. This allows your brain to become better at solving problems.

Drawing can also help you feel better emotionally. It lets you express your feelings in a safe and fun way. You feel proud and more confident when you practice drawing and get better at it. It's like solving a puzzle!

When you draw, you need to focus and be patient. It teaches you how to keep trying even if something is tricky. Drawing can also teach you about different cultures and history. You can draw things from different places and times, and it helps you learn more about the world.

Drawing can be a social thing, too. You can draw with your friends and share your ideas. It's a great way to connect with others.

So, have fun drawing! It's not just about making pretty pictures – it's about growing your skills, understanding yourself, and having a great time with your friends! Grab your art supplies and start drawing.

Drawing of Sailboat Easy

Learning to draw is always fun for drawers of any age. We love breaking down each of the drawings into a step-by-step guide. I also think having the printable drawing guide helps in making the easy drawings come to life.

If you love drawing tutorials as much as we do, then you will not want to miss some of our other  fun drawing lessons .

• Dragon Drawing
• Airplane Drawing

Before you start drawing, we also want to make sure you have the right tools. Here are the  drawing paper , and  drawing pencils  that we like to use.

The drawing is a cartoon sailboat and gives a basic idea of a sailboat sketch. You can later add more details to it and color it. Your kids will have a few good practice times, and soon they’ll be drawing boats like a pro!

Get your free printable tutorial now, and help your kids grow artistically! Grab a sheet of paper and a pencil and let's start drawing.

Drawing the Sail

The first step is to the bottom frame of the sail. Draw a straight line as the bottom of the sail. Then a curved line like a wide m shape with the left curved line slightly smaller than the second.

Next, draw a leaf shape in the v portion from the previous step. Add a straight line under the bottom of the sail.

Next step, draw a curved line from the bottom line around the outside up to the point of the leaf shape. Draw one on each side of the sails creating a full shape of the sail. Then draw two horizontal lines under the sail as the top of the boat.

In the next step, draw a line through the bottom of the sail through the leaf shape, and out the top. Draw a small curvy line off the top and a small horizontal line between the top of the boat and the sail. Add a small curved line on both the front sail and back sail to add stripes to the sail. Then draw wavy lines under the top of the boat as the water.

Drawing the Body of the Sailboat

Draw a curved line as the bottom of the boat from each side of the boat down into the water. Then draw two slightly diagonal lines from the small horizontal line between the top of the boat and the sail down towards the top of the boat body creating a trapezoid shape as the top of the boat or helm. Draw a small curved line to complete the flag at the top of the sailboat.

Lastly, add the final details of the boat. Small details like three small circles on the boat body. Add two rectangles inside the helm.

The last step is to go over your drawing with a dark marker and then color in your sailboat. I love the idea of using basic colors.

Happy Drawing!

Easy How to Draw a Sailboat Tutorial and Sailboat Coloring Page

Below you’ll find an easy step-by-step tutorial for how to draw a sailboat and a sailboat coloring page. the simplicity allows students extra time to color carefully to make all those colors pop..

Use the Button below to Download a PDF Tutorial

This sailboat drawing started off years ago as a watercolor resist project, as it was so easy for students to draw. They could get the shapes down in no time, trace with a permanent black marker, add crayon texture lines to the water and trees, and then paint away. An example is included below. (Please note, those bright and pretty colors come from using real watercolor paper. It can be a bit pricey, but if you’re working on something for a special occasion, it’s worth it.)

To make things more flexible for non-painters though, I’ve made this version that just uses crayon. The super easy shapes still make it a good match for kinders and up, and the layering of the boat in front of the trees is good practice for young artists. It’s the step that comes after drawing things side by side.

Materials to draw a Sailboat

• Drawing Paper . This is the good stuff you can buy in bulk for a good price.
• Pencils. I like how this brand always makes nice dark lines.

Step-by-Step Instructions for Drawing a Sailboat

How to Draw a Great Looking Sailboat for Kids and Beginners - Step 1

1. Begin by outlining the deck, bow, and stern of the boat . Use a long curved line for the deck, doubling it back upon itself to form the stern or back of the boat. From the front of the ship, extend a curved line, and double it back upon itself. You should outline a narrow shape. This marks the bow or the front of the boat.

2. Continue the curved line of the deck on the opposite side of the bow, continuing to outline the boat's hull. Beneath the point of the bow, draw a vertical curved line, indicating the contours of the lower bow. Then, draw a curved line down each side of the hull.

"Somewhere beyond the sea Somewhere waiting for me My lover stands on golden sands And watches the ships that go sailing." - "Beyond the Sea," song by Frank Sinatra

Sailboats or sailing ships are "propelled partly or entirely by sails" that catch the wind. Sailboats are also known as sloops, cutters, catboats, dinghies, ketches, schooners, and yawls, depending on their design.

The first sail-driven boats were invented thousands of years ago. The oldest evidence of these vessels come from both the South China Sea in Asia and the Mediterranean Sea, which abuts Europe, Africa, and the Middle East.

Sailboats can be used in the ocean or in freshwater lakes . Sailboat festivals are held in places around the world, attracting enthusiasts who bring their brightly colored sailing craft. Some events include the sport of sailboat racing.

About the sailboat.

A sailboat is a type of boat that is powered by wind. They have sails that catch the wind and propel the boat forward.

Sailboats can come in many different sizes, from small one-person boats to large yachts.

They are often used for recreation, such as for sailing on lakes or oceans. Some people even use sailboats for racing or for traveling long distances.

Sailboats can be a relaxing and enjoyable way to travel on the water, but they can also require some skill and knowledge to operate.

Have you ever dreamed of setting sail on a beautiful ship, the wind blowing through your hair? Maybe that dream is a bit far off, but what about bringing a part of it to life right now? Yes, I’m talking about learning how to draw a sailboat. It might not be the same as actually sailing one, but it’s a fun and creative way to bring the nautical vibes into your home. In this ‘how to draw a sailboat’ guide, we’ll help you navigate the artistic waters, guiding you step by step to create your own sailboat masterpiece. It doesn’t matter if you’re a beginner or if you’ve drawn before, this sailboat drawing tutorial is simple enough for anyone to follow.

Step 1: Draw the Hull of the Sailboat

Start by drawing a long, narrow horizontal oval in the middle of your page. This will form the hull or body of the sailboat. It doesn’t need to be perfect – an uneven, slightly pointed oval can give the impression of a boat sitting in water.

Step 2: Draw the Deck of the Sailboat

Next, draw a straight line across the top third of your oval. This line will be the deck of the boat, where people would stand.

Step 3: Draw the Mast of the Sailboat

From the middle of your deck line, draw a vertical line upwards. This will be the mast of your sailboat, which holds the sails. Make sure this line is longer than your boat is tall – real sailboat masts are quite tall!

Step 4: Draw the Sails of the Sailboat

Now, draw two large triangles for the sails. One triangle should be on the right side of the mast, with the longest side of the triangle touching the mast. The other triangle should be on the left side of the mast, again with the longest side of the triangle touching the mast. These are your sails, catching the wind to push your boat forward.

Step 5: Draw the Boom

Underneath the right-hand sail, draw a small horizontal line protruding from the mast. This is the boom, a horizontal pole that extends from the bottom of the mast and controls the shape of the sail.

Step 6: Draw the Sea Underneath the Sailboat

To place your sailboat in a scene, draw wavy horizontal lines beneath your boat for the water. The waves can be small curved lines to give the impression of a calm sea.

Step 7: Finishing Touches and Color Your Sailboat

Finally, you can add any additional details you like – a flag at the top of the mast, birds in the sky, maybe some people on the deck. Then, color your boat. The hull can be any color, though they are often white or blue. The sails are usually white, and the sea can be colored blue.

How to Draw a Sailboat | 9 Super Easy Steps

Thank you for joining our lesson. Today we will be learning how to draw a sailboat. You will be happy to know that this is the easiest and most fun drawing lesson you will ever take. But first, let’s understand what is a sailboat .

If you have been near a beach, you probably have had the chance to see a sailboat in action. Sailboats, also known as sailing boats, are boats that are entirely or partly propelled by sails. These boats are a lot smaller than sailing ships. Distinctions in what makes up a sailboat vary depending on maritime culture and region. Let’s get down to today’s lesson with that out of the way.

What You Will Need

• A drawing piece of paper
• Coloring supplies

How to Draw a Sail Boat

Learning how to draw a sailboat offers a great way to learn about sailing the open seas. Our tutorial will cover a relatively easy process of drawing a sailing boat. In the process, you will learn the different parts that make up a sailboat and what they are used for. To make it easier for you to draw , take a look at the steps we will be following.

Step 1: Draw the Hull

The main part of a sailboat is the hull. This is the main body that houses all the other components including the keel which sits below the body and helps with stability and the rudder which helps with steering . In our drawing, the first thing we are going to draw is the hull.

To draw the hull, we will start by drawing a horizontal rectangle close to the bottom of our drawing paper. The rectangle will serve as our guide. To convert the rectangle into a hull, we will start by curving the left and right parts of the rectangle. We will also make the bottom and top parts curved. Use your eraser to remove all the unused sections of the rectangle apart from the topmost part. Your drawing should look like this.

Step 2: Draw the Mast

A sailboat uses a sail which is a canvas that traps the wind to help the boat propel forward. The mainsail is usually attached to a vertical structure known as the mast. This is a vertical rod that rises from the hull. We will be adding it next.

To draw the mast, we will draw a straight line starting from the hull and rising vertically to almost the top of your drawing paper. Draw another line next to the first one to form a tube-like structure.

To make it possible for the mainsail to be spread out for maximum efficiency, we need a horizontal rod attached to the main mast. Add a tube-like structure close to the bottom of the mast . The structure should not be too long. We will also add a small line to serve as an attachment for the second sail. This attachment is known as the pulpit . It should look something like what we have below.

Step 3: Add the Right Sail

A sailboat usually has two sails . With the sail attachments ready, we need to start by adding the mainsail. This one is attached to the right side of the mast which is the windward side (the side of the boat closest to the wind). Simply add a curved line that starts from the top of the mast and curves towards the end of the horizontal rod we attached to the mast. To indicate that the sail is firmly attached to the mast, use a straight line to attach the curved line to the horizontal rod as shown.

Our drawing is starting to look more like a sailboat, isn’t it? Let’s keep going.

Step 4: Add the Left Sail

We are now going to add the left sail . This one sits on the leeward side which is the side of the boat that is furthest from the wind. Adding this sail will be very easy . We will not be attaching it directly to the mast. This time we will be drawing it parallel to the mast.

To draw the sail, start by drawing a horizontal line that starts above the left end of the hull , extends towards the right, and stops close to the vertical mast. Next, we will draw a vertical line that goes up to almost the height of the mast. The final step will be connecting the two lines using a slightly curved line that starts from the top of the vertical line to the left side of the horizontal line . You should have something that looks like this.

Step 5: Attach the Sail

The left sail needs to be attached to the mast and to the attachment we added to the left side of the hull. This is done using ropes. In our drawing, we are going to add straight lines which are meant to indicate there is tension on the sail.

We will start by adding a diagonal line at the top part of the left sail. The diagonal line should start from the top of the sail and attach to the mast. Next, we will add another diagonal line starting from the bottom right corner of the left sail and connecting to the bottom of the main mast .

Finally, we will add two lines that attach the bottom left corner of the left sail to the pulpit. One line should be horizontal starting from the base of the sail while the other one should start slightly above the bottom left corner.

Step 6: Decorate the Hull

Our sailing boat is almost ready. You would get away with it if you left it as it is. However, to indicate that we are great artists who pay attention to detail, we are going to add some lines on the hull to indicate that it is wooden. For that, we will add curved lines that are parallel to the bottom line of the hull.

Step 7: Refine Your Drawing

The sailboat is now ready! That was not so hard, was it? I bet not. Before we proceed, now is the perfect time to refine your drawing so that it looks exactly like ours or better. To do so, take a look at our drawing below and make changes to your drawing if there are areas that are way off.

Never allow frustrations to get to you. Even though it is a simple drawing, not everyone gets everything perfectly right the first time. Do not be discouraged if you feel your sailboat doesn’t look as good. It takes practice to perfect your skills . Now that you know what is required, you can simply start over and give it another try. Many people only get it right after the second or third try.

Take the Drawing to the Next Level

It is okay to leave the sailboat as it is now. However, if you truly want to become a superstar, you have to be willing to do more to make your drawing stand out . In this section, we will look at some of the things you can do to make your sailing boat more impressive.

Step 8: Add a Background

Sailboats sail on water, not space, lol. The first thing we are going to add is the water. For this, we will add a few wavy lines below the boat. They will serve as the surface of the water. You can also add a rough shape below the boat to serve as a rough reflection of the sailing boat. Take a look at what we have done.

You can take your drawing further by adding some clouds in the background. If you want, you can add a name on the main sail and some birds in the background. It is also okay if you wish to add some mountain ranges in the far distance.

The goal here is to demonstrate how creative you are. You must, however, never forget that the sailboat is the star of today’s drawing. You should, therefore, not add items that hide it.

Step 9: Color Your Drawing

When you are satisfied with your drawing and all the background details, you can take out your coloring supplies and add color to it. Coloring your drawing is a lot of fun. You can use any colors you want. Show us how creative you are. Here is what we did to ours. You can do more with yours.

As you can see , drawing a sailboat is quite easy . We were able to achieve a beautiful drawing by combining several shapes. We started by drawing the hull by first using a horizontal rectangle which served as our guide. We then converted the rectangle into a hull by curving the sides. Next, we added the mast and then the mainsails. We advanced our drawing by adding wavy lines for the water and added a few more details for the background before coloring.  

You can use our steps to draw a sailboat from a different perspective or from a real image. We believe you have grasped the concept of drawing a sailing boat now. These steps can also be used in sketching a sailboat using your favorite app on your laptop, tablet, or smartphone.

Step-by-Step Realistic Boat Drawing Tutorial

You can see from the main image that the boat sketch we are going to do today is quite complex. There are many small details and tricky elements, but we have tried to make boat drawing easy for all artists. We begin the tutorial with several simple steps that help us to build up the final shape of the boat drawing. We then begin to add the smaller details, before using color to bring our boat drawing to life.

You can see an outline of the different steps in the collage below. 

Most of the realism in our drawing of a boat comes from the coloring steps. Whenever you begin learning how to draw a new subject, we find it best to use a coloring medium that you feel most comfortable with. Whether you are a digital artist or prefer physical mediums, you can simply adjust the instructions to suit your needs. If you are using a physical medium, like paint, we suggest using a light pencil for the initial construction and outlining steps. For digital mediums, use a separate layer for these steps. 

If you are ready to dive right in, find somewhere comfortable to sit, and let us begin!

Step 1: Shape the Main Body of the Boat Sketch

We are going to begin our boat drawing by creating the basic shape of the hull. Start by finding the central point of your drawing area, and begin drawing the long curved shape. The shape is like a canoe, with a curve up and in on either end. 

Step 2: Outline Some Details

We are now going to begin adding some smaller details. Begin on the far left end of the boat sketch, drawing a curving canopy shape. Add a small narrow band around the base of the boat drawing below this canopy, and then add a small tear-drop shape in the front point of the boat. 

You can also add a small rope-like protrusion from the front (right side).   

Step 3: Draw the Sails

In this step, we are going to draw the main sail and the front sail of our boat sketch. Begin with the main sail, a large curving rectangle above the middle part of the boat. You can then draw a long mast behind this sail, extending from the base of the boat and up above the top of the sail. You can then draw a smaller and more angled sail above the front bow of the boat. 

Again, you can draw the mast which should be angled towards the right side of your canvas and extend slightly above the sail.   

Step 4: Add In the Railing and Ropes

There are two main objectives for this step. Firstly, we are going to draw the railing of the deck, and then we are going to add the sail ropes. Let us begin with the barrier, starting with a curving shape that extends along most of the length of the boat. Then, using equally spaced lines, create several support beams. To complete this step, you are going to add the ropes for the sail. Begin by adding a bar along the top of each sail, and then draw several ropes that extend from the top of the masts to each corner of the sails. 

You can also draw some ropes that join the sails to the deck of the boat. 

Step 5: Draw the Ocean and the Oars

We are now going to add some context to your boat drawing. Begin by creating some gentle ocean waves around the base of the boat drawing. You can then draw some oars that extend from the side of the ship down into these waves. Generally, the oars should be facing backward, but you can create some variation in their angles for additional realism. 

Step 6: Create Texture Within Your Realistic Boat Drawing

Things are starting to get exciting now. At this stage, we have the basic elements of our boat drawing complete, and we also have some of the finer details. We are now going to add some textural details to the sails and bow. Let us begin with the sails, using some fine horizontal and vertical lines to create a series of blocks. 

Within these blocks, add some fine texture lines to emphasize the three-dimensionality. 

Next, using fine and long strokes that follow the shape of the bow, create some wooden plank details. Create texture within these planks, and use fine lines to add more texture where you think it is necessary. As a final detailed touch, draw a wooden eye on the front of the boat sketch. 

Step 7: Add Some Light Texture to the Waves

We are now going to add some final texture to our sketch before we begin using color. Within the shape of the waves, create some fine arched lines that represent a realistic ocean wave texture. 

Step 8: Begin Coloring the Wood of Your Boat Sketch

In order to create our realistic boat drawing, we are going to build the color up gradually. In this step, we are going to add a base coat of color to the wooden parts of our boat sketch. Use a regular paintbrush and a light brown shade of paint for this.

Fill the base of the boat with an even coat of color, and then move on to the masts. 

Step 9: Color the Sails

We are now going to complete our base color coat by coloring the sails. Use a regular paintbrush and a light shade of cream paint to carefully color the main sail and the front sail. 

Step 10: Add Some Color to the Ocean

Let us now move on to the ocean, using some light blue paint to fill in the waves surrounding the base of your boat drawing. 

Step 11: Start Contouring Your Boat Drawing

Now that we have the base colors down, we are going to begin adding more structure. For this step, you are going to need a small blending brush and a touch of black paint. Begin to add some definitions between the panels of wood on the side of your boat drawing. You can also add some shading to the masts, the oars, and the back curve of your ship. 

Tip: When using black for contouring or shading, always begin very lightly and darken as you need to. Black is almost impossible to remove once you have applied it.   

Step 12: Continue Shading Your Boat Sketch

We are now going to continue shading our drawing of a boat with a slightly finer tough. Use a sharp detailing brush and some black paint to add some fine shading along the details on the side of your boat. This will include things like shading around the eye, between each of the planks of wood, and within the canopy. 

Step 13: Start Shading the Sails

Let us now move on to the sails. With a blending brush and the same brown that you used as the base coat for the boat, create a gentle blend of color up the sails. The bottom and sides of the sails should be slightly darker, and blend smoothly into the lighter cream color at the top. 

Tip: For an extra smooth transition, you can use a clean blending brush to carefully all of these colors together. 

Step 14: Darken the Shading on the Sails

As we did with the body of our boat drawing, we are now going to add more detailed shadows to the sails. With a small blending brush and some dark grey paint, add shadows on top of the textured areas. The grey shading should mostly be focused around the pleats in the sails, around the edges, and above the texture lines. 

Step 15: Apply Highlights To Your Drawing of a Boat

The last few steps have focused on creating darkness within our boat drawing. We are now going to begin to contrast these shadows with a  touch of highlighting. With a blending brush and some white paint, begin by creating a faded highlight on the lightest areas of the sails. Then, with a more detailed brush and white paint, apply highlights to the areas of the boat that are most likely to catch the light. These areas include the top of the canopy, the top of the masts, the railing, and on top of the ores. 

Tip: When creating highlights, it is easiest to pick a light source. You can then imagine where the light would hit from that angle.   

Step 16: Create Three-Dimensions in the Water

We are now going to shift our focus to creating structure within the waves. With a small blending brush and a touch of black paint, apply some light shading along the edges of the water. You can shade beneath the wave lines that you drew previously, giving the impression of moving water. 

Step 17: Highlight the Ocean Waves

Just before we finish our realistic boat drawing, we are going to add a few spots of highlight to the water surface. Use a small blending brush and some white paint to apply short strokes of light onto the water surface. 

Step 18: Finishing Your Boat Drawing

In this last step, we are going to add some final spots of water spray and then remove the outline. Begin by using a small blending brush and some white paint to create some realistic water splashes against the side of the boat. You can then remove the dark outline form your boat drawing, leaving you with a seamlessly realistic sketch. Use a fine detailing brush and the corresponding color at each point of the outline to carefully trace over it. You can do the same for any inner texture lines. 

We really hope you have enjoyed your voyage of discovery today! As with all of our drawing tutorials , we hope that we have made boat drawing easy for artists of any levels. You now know how to draw a ship of any kind, following the same basic process.

Alternative Drawing Techniques

To help you navigate the waters of creativity, I’ve put together several alternative techniques for drawing boats. These are designed to give you more practice opportunities, helping you to advance your drawing skills and develop a fleet of artistic talents.

How to Draw a Cartoon Boat

This drawing method is a playful and cartoonish style ideal for beginners. It starts with a simple curved line for the boat’s base, adding layers step by step to form the body of the boat. Details like the cabin, porthole, and chimney are drawn with basic shapes, emphasizing the cartoon-like simplicity.

The coloring stage brings the boat to life, keeping the tones bright and cheery. This method is great for young artists to learn the basics of constructing shapes and adding character to their drawings.

Easy Boat Drawing Lesson

This easy drawing method is perfect for beginners and breaks down the process of drawing a simple sailboat into manageable steps. It begins with drawing a basic curved line for the base of the boat, gradually building the structure up with a geometric hull and a straight mast.

Simple shapes are used to form the sail, and the method ensures that each element is proportional and aligned. The final steps add color to bring the boat to life, making it a great way for kids to learn the basics of drawing and coloring a boat on the water.

How to Draw a Boat for Kindergarten

This drawing technique is ideal for kindergarten students, breaking down the process into just four simple steps. The children start by drawing a basic trapezoid shape for the boat’s hull, then add a straight line for the mast. Next, they draw two connected triangles for the sails.

In the final step, they can add color to their creation, enhancing their ability to recognize shapes and practice fine motor skills, all while having fun with art. It’s a quick and satisfying way for little ones to create a complete picture, fostering both confidence and creativity in young learners.

Sharp-Edge Boat Drawing

Finally, this method, while similar to the second alternative technique, uses more defined geometric shapes with sharp, straight edges to enhance artistic skills.

It’s great for practicing precision in drawing lines and angles, helping to develop a steadier hand and better control of proportions. Such clear-cut geometry also introduces young artists to the concept of symmetry and balance in their creations.

Anchors aweigh! You’ve done an amazing job completing our boat drawing lesson. But don’t dock your pencils just yet; there’s a whole fleet of fun drawing tutorials waiting for you on my website. Have you ever wanted to draw Goku , or perhaps create a detailed house from your imagination?

Drawing the Sail

The first step is to the bottom frame of the sail. Draw a straight line as the bottom of the sail. Then a curved line like a wide m shape with the left curved line slightly smaller than the second.

Next, draw a leaf shape in the v portion from the previous step. Add a straight line under the bottom of the sail.

Next step, draw a curved line from the bottom line around the outside up to the point of the leaf shape. Draw one on each side of the sails creating a full shape of the sail. Then draw two horizontal lines under the sail as the top of the boat.

In the next step, draw a line through the bottom of the sail through the leaf shape, and out the top. Draw a small curvy line off the top and a small horizontal line between the top of the boat and the sail. Add a small curved line on both the front sail and back sail to add stripes to the sail. Then draw wavy lines under the top of the boat as the water.

Drawing the Body of the Sailboat

Draw a curved line as the bottom of the boat from each side of the boat down into the water. Then draw two slightly diagonal lines from the small horizontal line between the top of the boat and the sail down towards the top of the boat body creating a trapezoid shape as the top of the boat or helm. Draw a small curved line to complete the flag at the top of the sailboat.

Lastly, add the final details of the boat. Small details like three small circles on the boat body. Add two rectangles inside the helm.

The last step is to go over your drawing with a dark marker and then color in your sailboat. I love the idea of using basic colors.
