However, if that sentence had another name in it, like “Tessa,” you wouldn’t have a problem figuring out the answer: “Tessa is a woman in a boat, on a lake, wearing a coat.”
A "ram" bulbous bow curves upwards from the bottom, and has a "knuckle" if the top is higher than the juncture with the hull—the through-tunnels in the side are bow thrusters. [1] A bulbous bow is a streamlined flaring or protruding bulb at the bow (or front) of a ship just below the waterline.
