Monkey Island:
Monkey Island is a sort of deck located at the topmost accessible height of the ship and just
above the bridge.

Bridge:
The ship’s bridge is the commanding
station of a ship. It controls the ship
movement through its navigational
equipment.

Funnel:
A Funnel or Stacks is a chimney on a vessel used to discharge engine and boiler smoke.

Accommodation:
The accommodation area is the
house for crews and lives. It has all
the amenities, including offices,
gym, crew cabins, hospital, salon,
recreation room, common rooms,
laundry, and galley.

Funnel Deck:
The funnel releases exhaust gases
into the atmosphere from the engine exhaust room of the ship. It has a similar function to
chimneys in factories.
Boat Deck:
The deck floor covers the ship hull structure. There can be multiple decks or deck sections on
a ship. The deck at the top, which bears maximum exposure to weather, is the main deck or
weather deck.

Foredeck:
The foredeck is the forward part of a weather
deck, between the superstructure and the
foc’sle superstructure.

Bulbous Bow:
It is a jut out bulb at the bow of the vessel just
below the W/L.

Stern:
The stern is an aft-end structure designed to provide low resistance, high propulsion
efficiency, and avoid vibrations.

Poop Deck:
It serves as a roof to the cabin
constructed in the aft of the ship.

Side Thrusters:
It helps in maneuvering ships at
a slow speed in congested
waters near ports or canals.
These are also referred to as
tunnel thrusters.

Rudder:
Without steering, we can’t move a vehicle in the desired direction, so the propeller propels
the ship, and the rudder steers the ship. The rudder is a flat hollow structure housed in the aft
of the propeller.
Propeller:
It is a mechanical device having blades fitted on
a central shaft. These blades rotate, and their
rotational energy is converted into pressure
energy, and due to this, the propeller produces
the thrust required for propulsion. It pushes the
seawater backwards, and, in turn, the seawater
helps the ship move forward.

Hatch Cover:
To prevent the cargo storage from
spoilage, especially to make storage
spaces airtight and watertight, hatch
covers are required.

Cargo hold:
Enclosed spaces to retain and store
cargo or freight containers carrying
coal, grain and salt are referred to as
cargo holds.

Freeboard:
Freeboard can be defined as the distance
measured from the waterline to the
higher edge of the freeboard
plating/deck plating at the sides of
amidships.
