Highest boiling point?

the molecule with the longest chain would have the highest boiling point, i would have to say CH3CH2CH2CH2OH because it has the longest chain of n-p hydrocarbons compared to the rest of the alcohols. probably (CH3)3COH would have the lowest because it has the smallest chain as it is a tetrahedral shaped alcohol.
