United Yacht Boats 2007-09-25 03:14:52 United Yacht
A boat in common parlance is a watercraft, generally smaller in size to most ships. A boat consists of structures called hulls and some system of propulsion, such as paddles, oars, a setting pole, a sail, paddle wheels and so forth.
The somewhat horizontal but arched structure that spans the boat’s hull is known as the deck. Unlike a ship, where there are numerous decks, a boat conventionally has just has one. The cabin’s floor is called the sole. The base of the deck is known as the deck head. The vertical bulkheads divide the internal area. Some bulkheads are significant in the overall structure of the boat. The boat’s front side is known as the bow (or prow); the back of the boat is the stern. The starboard and the port are the right and the left sides of the boat, respectively.
Today, the command area of a big boat is called – perhaps inappropriately – the bridge. The bridge, depending upon the design, can be the wheelhouse or the cockpit.
