A scow is a kind of boat. Technically, it is a flat bottomed boat with a blunt bow, often used to haul bulk freight. A barge is a kind of scow.
Because of the association with bulk freight and the fact that they may be poorly maintained because of their low value cargo, the word "scow" has come to be used as a negative. So a boat might be called a "scow" or a "garbage scow" not because it is a scow or carries garbage, but because this is a way of saying it is run down and in poor repair, not something to be proud of.

In order to succeed with the American Revolution it was going to be essential that the United States would require capable Allies with deep pockets, generous hearts and warehouses filled with war material. The US would be matched up against the world's finest Navy and it didn't even own a garbage scow. The US was in dire straits, and France came to the rescue.

Yes. The word slow (sl-OH) has one of the two sounds of the OW pair (OH), and rhymes with show and stow. Here the W may be considered "silent."
In the other pronunciation, you hear "ow!" (cow, scow, scowl, shower).

A cathedral hull is a hull shape used in modern boats, usually power-driven. It can be thought of as a kind of vestigial trimaran in which the center hull has two smaller side hulls which are so close to the main hull that there is no longer any open space. A cathedral hull is a vee-bottomed boat with sponsons which extend almost as far forward as the main hull. The airspace between the hulls may be very small or nonexistent-a good example would be the classic "Boston Whaler 13" which is nearly a flat-bottomed scow at the stern.

The pioneers would sometimes make a wax paste and water proof their wagons to float them across while making the animals swim across. Also, sometimes there would be Native Americans that would ferry them across for trade or money. If the rivers were very deep, they would make the animals swim and build a large flat boat called a scow to float themselves and their wagon(s) across.
