Trans-boat with tail is a 9-cell still life.
This still life is comprised of the normally stable boat with a normally unstable tail attached. This is one of two possible isomers, named trans due to the corner part of the boat facing outwards from the tail; the other isomer, cis-boat with tail, has this corner part tucked inwards.
Trans-boat with tail is the twenty-fourth most common still life in Achim Flammenkamp's census, being less common than bi-pond but more common than hat.[1] It is also the thirty-first most common object on Adam P. Goucher's Catagolue.[2] Compared to the cis-boat with tail, the trans-boat with tail is about 17 times as common.
All strict still lifes with a population of 22 or fewer cells, all oscillators with 16 or fewer cells, and all spaceships with 31 or fewer cells are known to be glider-constructible. A glider synthesis of this object can be found in the infobox to the right.
