  2. Sharpie (boat) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sharpie_(boat)

    Phil Bolger designed a rudimentary solution to the problem of hull slap at anchor, which effects flat bottom boats, by making a 3 foot long, oval shaped anti-slap pad of multiple layers of ply about 2 inches deep, which were then rounded into a shallow arc. The noise is the same as chine slap familiar to owners of deep-V powerboats at anchor.

  3. Boat building - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boat_building

    Such a hull has a maximum "hull speed" which is a function of its waterline length. An exception is the catamaran, whose twin hulls are usually so fine that they do not engender a bow wave. Planing hulls: planing hulls have a shape that allows the boat to rise out of the water as the speed increases. Sail boats that plane are typical V-shaped ...

  4. Coracle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coracle

    Oval in shape and very similar to half a walnut shell, the coracle has a keel-less flat bottom to evenly spread the load across the structure and to reduce the required depth of water; often to only a few inches. This structure helps to make the boat more maneuverable and less likely to snag when used on narrow and/or shallow slow-running ...

  5. Scupper - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scupper

    Two scuppers cut into either side of this outdoor stairwell prevent water from building up and making the stairs slippery. A scupper is an opening in the side walls of a vessel or an open-air structure, which allows water to drain instead of pooling within the bulwark or gunwales of a vessel, or within the curbing or walls of a building. Ship's ...

  6. Bilge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bilge

    Water that does not drain off the side of the deck or through a hole in the hull, which it would typically do via a scupper, instead drains down into the ship into the bilge. This water may be from rough seas, rain, leaks in the hull or stuffing box, or other interior spillage. The collected water must be pumped out to prevent the bilge from ...

  7. Dorade box - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dorade_box

    The grey area indicates the deck of the boat. A dorade box (also called a dorade vent , collector box , cowl vent , or simply a "ventilator") is a type of vent that permits the passage of air in and out of the cabin or engine room of a boat while keeping rain, spray, and sea wash out.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cathedral_hull

    A cathedral hull, seen from blow, with a simple platform for the rest of the boat. A cathedral hull is a hull shape used in modern boats, usually power-driven. It has sponsons which extend almost as far forward as the main hull. The airspace between the hulls may be very small or nonexistent.

  9. Transom (nautical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transom_(nautical)

    In small boats and yachts, this flat termination of the stern is typically above the waterline, but large commercial vessels often exhibit vertical transoms that dip slightly beneath the water. [2] On cruising boats, a counter stern may be truncated to form a "truncated counter stern", in which there is a part of the stern that approximates a ...
