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..

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.

How to Draw A Boat Step by Step
This tutorial shows how to draw a sail boat in nine steps with detailed illustrated examples and easy to follow instructions.
The sail boat used in this example is fairly modern and also fairly simple with just two sails. You can see a preview of what the final drawing as well as the different steps look like in the image above.
Start the tutorial using a pencil and make light lines that you can easily erase in case you happen to make a mistake. You can darken them later with a black pen/marker. You may also want to have some colored pencils/paints if you wish to color the drawing afterwards.
Step 1 – Draw the Boat Hull
Start by drawing the hull of the boat as shown in the example. Before you begin be sure to leave enough room at the top of your page/drawing area for the mast/sails.
All you need to outline the hall are just three slightly curved lines, one for the front, one for the top and one for the back.
Leave the bottom out as it will be submerged in water. Also be sure to draw the front slightly raised.
Step 2 – Draw the Surrounding Water
Add a wavy line along the bottom of the hull of the boat to show the water ripples around it and add the horizon line on each end of the boat slightly above that for the horizon. Unlike the water ripples around the hull this line can be straight.
Step 3 – Draw the Cabin
Sticking out from about the middle of the hull add the cabin. Draw it with a flat top, give it a slope on the front and a steeper slope at the back.
Step 4 – Draw the Mast
Going up from the top of the cabin draw the mast. Make it a straight pole with another part attached near it’s bottom and pointing backwards (the boom).
Step 5 – Draw the Sails
Draw the sails with the front one curved slightly forward but leave a little bit of room between it and the mast and front tip of the boat (there will be ropes tying it to those places added in the next step). Afterwards draw the back sail attacked directly to the mast and the boom. You can simply draw one very lightly curved line between these two to show it.
Finally you can also add a flag at the top of the mast pointing forward with a slightly fold to show that it’s blowing in the wind.
Step 6 – Draw the Ropes
Draw the ropes tying the front sail to the mast and the bow (front tip of the ship). Next draw another rope going down form the boom to the hull.
Step 7 – Draw the Windows
Draw some windows on the cabin as shown in the example. You can make the two in the middle rectangular in shape (also give them slightly rounded corners). The one in the front should look like it’s cut-off by the front of the cabin. The back end of the back window should be angled to match that end of the cabin. Also try and space the windows to have the same distance between each of them.
Step 8 – Finish the Line Drawing
Add more water ripples below the big wavy line at the bottom of the hull. Make the waves larger near the bottom of the drawing and smaller near the boat. This will add a bit of perspective making it look like the picture has some depth.
After you finish drawing the water go over your lines with either a black pen or marker. Alternatively you can simply darken the them with a pencil.
Step 9 – Color the Boat
Finally you can color the boat as well as the water/sky. It may be a good idea to use either water based paints or colored pencils to do this. Markers can be a little too bright.
Add the colors as follows:
- Yellow cabin
- Blue windows
- Light yellow sails
- Green/blue water
- Light blue sky
You can of course use a different colors for the boat if you prefer.
This tutorial shows how you can draw a sail boat without needing to go into too many small details or complex shading. By adding the most important parts and using a good combination of colors you can have a drawing that is simple but also looks nice.

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!

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.

To depict realistic details in the sailboat, follow these steps:
Step 1: Enhance the sailboat hull by incorporating windows . Utilize straight lines to create rectangular shapes.
Step 2: Represent the mast using a lengthy, vertical line that extends from the center of the hull to the sky.
Step 3: Craft triangular shapes for the sails , connecting them to the mast and extending outward.
Step 4: Utilize curved lines to portray ropes that connect the sails to the mast and the sides of the boat.
Step 5: Attach a flag at the pinnacle of the mast. Make use of a small triangle shape and lines to illustrate it billowing in the wind.
Step 6: Include smaller details such as a rudder at the rear of the sailboat and portholes on the hull.
In a personal anecdote, I once endeavored to add intricate details to a sailboat for the very first time. Following the aforementioned steps meticulously, I delicately incorporated the windows, mast, sails, and ropes. The process proved to be both challenging and rewarding, as each detail breathed life into the sailboat on the canvas. By the conclusion, I was astounded by how such small details transformed a simple sketch into a lifelike representation. This experience was immensely satisfying, bolstering my confidence in drawing and inspiring me to explore various subjects and techniques within my artwork.
Step 4: Add Water and Waves
To add water and waves to your sailboat drawing, follow these steps:
1. Draw the horizon line, separating the sky and water.
2. Create curved lines below the horizon to represent waves. Vary the size and shape for a realistic effect.
3. Use short, curved lines for small waves closer to the sailboat. Make them smaller and closer together than the larger waves in the distance.
4. Add details to the waves, such as foam and splashes. Use small, irregular shapes to represent foam and create splashes around the boat.
5. Darken the waves in the foreground and gradually lighten them as they recede into the distance to give a sense of depth.
6. Add shading to the water for depth and movement. Use light pencil strokes to show reflections of light on the surface.
Now, let’s share a true story in a similar tone of voice:
I remember a summer day on a sailboat excursion with my friends. The gentle rocking of the waves and the sunlight dancing on the water created a beautiful scene. I captured that memorable day by sketching the sailboat and the surrounding waves, bringing the drawing to life.
Tips for Drawing a Sailboat
When creating a sailboat drawing, it’s important to keep in mind these helpful tips for drawing a sailboat:
1. Initiate by outlining the sailboat: Utilize geometric shapes like triangles and rectangles to sketch the shape of the sailboat.
2. Incorporate the sails: Use curved lines to draw the main sail and smaller sails, giving them a natural and flowing appearance.
3. Include intricate details: Enhance the realism of the sailboat by adding ropes, rigging, and small windows or portholes.
4. Draw the hull: Pay close attention to the hull’s shape and curves, remembering that sailboats typically have a pointed bow and a flat bottom.
5. Add the rudder and keel: Situate the rudder at the back of the sailboat and the keel below the waterline to improve stability and steering.
6. Add color or shading: Bring your sailboat drawing to life by incorporating color or shading. Consider using distinct colors for the water and the sails, such as blue and white.
By following these valuable tips for drawing a sailboat, you can create a stunning and lifelike depiction. Remember to practice and enjoy the artistic process!

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.

How to Draw a Sailboat
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 – A Step by Step Guide
Sailboat drawing in just 6 easy steps.
Sailing the seven seas is one of the most adventurous and liberating activities you can partake in, and if you wanted to do that then a sailboat would be your best bet!
These small watercraft can help you effortlessly glide across the ocean as you search for adventure.
Owning a sailboat isn’t something available to everyone, unfortunately, but learning how to draw a sailboat can be the next best thing.
By the end of this guide, you will know how to do just that!
How to Draw A Sailboat – Let’s get Started!
To get this guide on how to draw a sailboat going, we will begin with the sail first. You can start off by drawing the frame of the sail, which will be drawn using two straight lines very close to one another.
Then, we will be extending a curved line down from the top of this frame towards the base.
This will form the sheet of the sail. At the base of the sheet, you can add two more lines close to one another for the bottom frame of the sail.
Once you have drawn these, you are ready to continue to step 2!
Step 2 – Next, draw another sheet for the sails
Now that you have one sheet done for the sails of your sailboat drawing, we can add another one in this second step.
This sail will be similarly shaped to the previous one, except it will be reversed and won’t have the same vertical straight frame that the other one did.
It will also be smaller and lower down than the previous one was, but it will have a similar straight frame at the bottom of it.
Once you have drawn it and positioned it as it appears in our reference image we can move on to the next part.
Step 3 – Now, draw the boat itself
You’re finished with the ‘sail’ part of the sailboat, and now you can start on the ‘boat’ aspect in this step of our guide on how to draw a sailboat.
The boat will be seen from the top down, and to draw the outline you can use some curved lines for the side that culminate at the tip at the front. The back of the boat will be drawn with straight lines instead.
These outlines will then have a second outline close to those lines, and once you have that you can add some of the interior details.
These details will be drawn with some straight-edged shapes for the area sailors would be seated in along with some other details.
You can then finish off this step with two short curved lines at the front and back of the boat for the start of the base.
Step 4 – Next, draw some details for the sails
The next few steps of this guide will be all about adding the final details, elements and touches to your sailboat drawing.
For now, we will add some details to the sails, and these details will be quite easy to add! All you need to do is draw some slightly curved lines horizontally across the sails.
You could also decorate the sails with a different pattern if you would like to! What patterns can you think of for the sails?
Step 5 – Now, finish off your sailboat drawing
This fifth step of this guide on how to draw a sailboat will see you adding some final details and elements.
For this step, we will be using some curved and bumpy lines to show the water breaking underneath the boat. Once you have drawn these water details you have finished all of the details in the guide!
Before you move on, you can also add some details of your own to put your own spin on it. You could draw some people sitting in the sailboat or some different pattern details on the sails.
Perhaps you could also draw some dolphins or whales jumping out the water or draw a beautiful background for it.
These are just a few ideas you could go for and you should be sure to get creative and have fun with, so be sure to express yourself and see what happens!
Step 6 – Finish off your sailboat drawing with some color
For the final step of your sailboat drawing, you will be finishing it off by adding some amazing colors to your drawing.
In our reference image, we showed one set of colors that you could go for, but these colors are just a suggestion.
For this step, you should feel free to incorporate any of your favorite colors to really bring this image to life!
There are no limits to the colors that you could use for this image, so be sure to get creative with it.
Once you know which colors you would like to use, you can then decide on the art mediums and tools you will use to add them.
You could use some acrylic paints and colored pens for some brighter colors that pop. Some watercolors or colored pencils would be ideal for more muted and subdued colors instead.
Either approach would look amazing, so what do you think you will go for?
5 Tips To Make Your Sailboat Drawing Even Better!
Get this sailboat sketch seaworthy with these helpful tips and tricks!
With this sailboat drawing, we kept the focus on the sailboat itself. That means we showed only a bit of the water surrounding the boat.
If you wanted to add more context to this artwork, you could add more water and waves around the sailboat. These could be calm and tranquil or rough and dangerous.
It all depends on what sort of scene you would like, and anything you choose will look cool!
Once you have worked on the water, you could then add even more to the background of this drawing of a sailboat. Even though you are depicting the sea, you would have many options!
There could be some desert islands, sea creatures or maybe even a bigger ship in the background. What are some other features you could add to this artwork?
With this sailboat as it appears now, there are no people on it to enjoy the sailing. It would be a small detail, but it could be fun to add some people on the sailboat!
Depending on how big you made the boat, they could be detailed or look like small dots on the boat. How many people would you add to the boat?
We showed a nice design for the sail featured on this sailboat sketch, but this is an area that you could have a lot of fun customizing!
This is your chance to create your very own sail design to show what your dream sailboat would look like. This design could use any shapes, images or text that you like.
What should this sail look like?
Finally, you can finish it all off with some colors. We showed you some you can use for your sailboat drawing, but these are far from the only ones you can go for!
Choosing the colors is just the first step, and choosing the art tools and mediums is the next. Mixing colors and mediums for different textures and sections can also make it look even cooler!
Your Sailboat Drawing is Complete!
You have completed all six steps of this guide on how to draw a sailboat, and you have a great picture to show for it!
We hope that you enjoyed this drawing adventure, and that this guide made taking on this drawing fun and easy for you to do!
Then, you can take this drawing even further with your own extra additions and elements. We mentioned a few ideas like adding some people in the boat or a background, but this is your chance to get creative! How will you put your own spin on this drawing?

1. Sketch the sailboat's hull. To do this, draw an upside-down trapezoid. 2. Sketch the cabin section of the boat. To sketch this section of the boat, draw a very skinny rhombus-like shape that is touching the boat—you won't need to draw the long bottom line though, since the sailboat itself already creates that.

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.
Complete The Sailboat Drawing. Complete the sailboat drawing by first coloring the mainsail with an orange crayon and the jib with a red crayon. Next, shade the burgee with a yellow crayon. Now, fill in the mast and boom of the sailboat with a brown crayon. Then, color the cabin with a white crayon and the windows with a blue crayon.

Step 1 - Draw the Boat Hull. Boat hull drawing. Start by drawing the hull of the boat as shown in the example. Before you begin be sure to leave enough room at the top of your page/drawing area for the mast/sails. All you need to outline the hall are just three slightly curved lines, one for the front, one for the top and one for the back.
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.
Add small lines or curves along the hull to represent planks or panels. 2. Draw windows or portholes on the cabin of the sailboat using small circles or rectangles. 3. Include a railing or handrail along the edges of the sailboat by drawing a thin line with small gaps or dots along the sides and back.
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.
To draw a sailboat with pointed edges, follow these steps: Start by drawing the hull of the sailboat, which involves creating a horizontal oval shape with two pointed edges. Draw a line to form the side of the hull. Add a sloped rectangular box for the cabin section of the boat.
To draw the hull of a sailboat, follow these steps: 1. Begin by sketching a lengthy, curved line for the bottom of the hull. 2. Add diagonal lines to form the sides of the sailboat. 3. Connect the sides together by drawing a straight line across the top. 4.
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.
Step 1: Start the sailboat with two big curved triangles for the sails. Add a pointed shape for the hull. Step 2: Draw a curved line to form the side of the hull. Sketch a rectangle with a rounded end for the seating area. Add a fat bracket shape on top of it. Step 3: Draw the mast between the sails.
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.
Sketch the main body of the sailboat. Start by drawing a trapezoid shape. 2. Sketch a line perpendicular to the body of the boat. Next, draw a small trapezoid where this line is connected to the boat. 3. Sketch another line. This time, place the line perpendicular to the first. Add more details to the stand of the mast.
6. Extend two vertical straight lines from the middle of the boat. Connect them at the top with a short line, and erase lines from between them. This is the mast that supports the sails. Then, draw rectangle-shaped seats inside the hull. Draw a straight line from the back corner of the hull to give the boat a three-dimensional shape.
Step 1. To get this guide on how to draw a sailboat going, we will begin with the sail first. You can start off by drawing the frame of the sail, which will be drawn using two straight lines very close to one another. Then, we will be extending a curved line down from the top of this frame towards the base.
