The territory of the vessels crosses the sense of physical space and expresses relations markedly in the form of power. This research had as main objective to characterize the territorial dimension of the boats in the fluvial waterway of Lagoa da Francesa in the city of Parintins / AM as one of the constituents of its daily life. It is qualitative and based on a dialectical approach, having methodological procedures as a bibliographical survey, documentary survey, photographic records, other instruments and techniques were free interviews and questionnaires, the analysis and tabulation of the data was done from the information obtained. As it was possible to observe on the edge of the French is a reflection of a set of relationships that have been developed over time and which makes this territory not lose its identity as referral, because in the midst of different processes the practices associated to the experiences of the different subjects observed. However, over time there is a significant change in land use and occupation that replaces traditional knowledge with new socioeconomic structures, transforming relationships by new activities and new objects, which are replaced by relations of mercantile exchange. It is important to point out that boats are links between different temporalities produced by the fluctuating movement of the riverside, characterized by the lived on the banks of the water courses and the urban movement, produced by relations of mercantile exchanges in vogue in the surroundings of the French lagoon
