Often a boat with many african americans on board. As the color of an african american is the same dark black color as coal, the boat takes on the appearance of a freighter or barge with a load of coal. However, this is not the case. The coal can be sold at dock after the voyage. Also, the coal will not steal from you during the voyage.
