what are boat areas called
The front of the boat is called the bow. The rear is the stern. If someone asks you to âthrow me the bowline,â you should toss him the rope at the front of the boat. A bathroom on a boat is called a head.
The hull of a boat consists of an internal network of frames that extend from side to side (transverse) and that run the length of the boat (longitudinal), covered by an outer shell plating, usually made of fiberglass or metal.
