Navigable
(gcide) | Navigable \Nav"i*ga*ble\, a. [L. navigabilis: cf. F. navigable.
See Navigate.]
Capable of being navigated; deep enough and wide enough to
afford passage to vessels; as, a navigable river.
[1913 Webster]
Note: By the common law, a river is considered as navigable
only so far as the tide ebbs and flows in it. This is
also the doctrine in several of the United States. In
other States, the doctrine of the civil law prevails,
which is, that a navigable river is a river capable of
being navigated, in the common sense of the term.

in Pennsylvania; 2 Binn. R. 75; 14 S. & R. 71; the navigability of a river
does not depend upon the ebb and flow of the tide, but a stream navigable by
sea vessels is a navigable river.
4. By the common law, such rivers as are navigable in the popular sense
of the word, whether the tide ebb and flow in them or not, are public
highways. Ang. Tide Wat. 62; Ang. Wat. Courses, 205 1 Pick. 180; 5 Pick.
199; 1 Halst. 1; 4 Call, 441: 3 Blackf. 136. Vide Arm of the sea; Reliction;
