Cis-boat on table is an 11-cell still life.

This still life is comprised of the normally stable boat acting to stabilise the normally unstable table, an induction coil. This is one of two possible isomers, named cis due to the boat not extending past the side of the table; the other isomer, trans-boat on table, extends out by an extra cell.

Commonness

Cis-boat on table is the eighty-first most common still life in Achim Flammenkamp's census, being less common than trans-snake on bun, but more common than beehive on table.[1] It is also the ninety-seventh most common object on Adam P. Goucher's Catagolue.[2]

Glider synthesis

On March 31, 2007 Dean Hickerson found a 4-glider synthesis of this still life.[3]
