19th-century photography boats

I'm writing an essay about early American photography boats (floating galleries, studios, etc.). The earliest I have been able to document in this country is 1847. I'm wondering if anyone is aware of earlier boats in Britain or Europe. I'm hoping to learn if there were predecessors to the American boats.
