🔍 Key Concepts

• Location of plating rows relative to the keel and the side shell of the boat • Traditional ship terminology for strakes (longitudinal rows of hull plating) • Difference between bottom, bilge, and sheer areas of a hull

💭 Think About

• Visualize a cross‑section of the lifeboat from keel to gunwale and identify which area each option’s term usually describes • Ask yourself: which term is normally used for the very first strake immediately alongside the keel on the bottom? • Consider where the bilge is located versus the sheer and how that affects which strake each term would name

✅ Before You Answer

• Confirm which term specifically means the strake next to the keel in standard ship construction terminology • Check that you are not confusing the bilge area (turn of the bottom to the side) with the flat bottom next to the keel • Eliminate any option that usually refers to the upper side plating near the deck edge rather than the bottom
