🔍 Key Concepts

• Garboard strake is the first row of shell plating on each side of the keel • Look for where the hull plating meets the keel plate along the bottom centerline • Distinguish between side shell strakes and the bottom-most strakes next to the keel

💭 Think About

• On this cutaway, which letter is pointing to the plating that lies immediately alongside the keel, not the keel itself? • Which labeled strake would get the most work when the ship is resting on the blocks or taking ground, because it is right next to the keel on the bottom? • If you trace the curve from the flat keel plate up the side, which is the first separate line of bottom plating attached to the keel?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which element is the keel plate itself so you don’t confuse it with the garboard strake • Confirm that the chosen letter points to plating, not to internal structure like floors, girders, or frames • Make sure the strake you choose is the first bottom strake outboard of the keel, not higher up on the side shell or at the turn of the bilge
