Adding a icon for boat_sharing. Very much the same as car_sharing. (see
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:amenity%3Dboat_sharing)

Rendering this does not interfer with other map POIs, since
boat_sharing is normally present in Marinas.
It is interesting for the general public to see it can share/rent a
boat.
Thanks for accepting this POI on the mapstyle.

Is there really any demand for this?

I talked to several boat sharing and boat renting operators. There all very interested to put their offer on the map - if it is rendered. So, as usual, it's a vicious circle.
But even if there are currently only few boats on the map, does it harm? I think the car sharing wasn't very popular some years ago, and no gets really important in a lot of cities. Boat sharing might just see a similar increase. It's a concept similiar in spirit with map sharing, so should't we promote it?

The "tourism=chalet" tag was split into two, adding a new tag
"tourism=apartment". (see
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:tourism%3Dapartment).
I use the same icon still as for chalet, but lowered zoom level from 17
to 18, since apartment are expected to be in more dense areas than
chalets.

What does the tourism=apartment commit have to do with this, though?

Closed for now, because the tourism=apartment part shouldn't be in this commit.
