What is it?
       The best answer is a wooden sailing ship, which goes by itself. Another answer is a coach or wagon, but that requires horses. A chair only holds the person, a wheelchair or pram needs to be pushed, a travois, rickshaw or parasail must be pulled, and a stretcher or palanquin has to be carried. Hot air balloons or hang gliders are reasonable, but are rarely made entirely of dead materials such as wood or cotton cloth; they usually contain metal or manmade fibers like nylon.
       A wooden ship, held together with wooden pegs, using cotton canvas sails, pine pitch caulking and hemp ropes is ideal.
