Q

What term indicates the outward curvature of the hull above the waterline?

🔍 Key Concepts

• Hull geometry terms used to describe shapes above and below the waterline • Difference between inward vs outward curvature of the hull sides • Which terms relate to vertical curvature of the deck line rather than side curvature

💭 Think About

• Identify which options describe the side of the hull curving away from the centerline as it rises above the waterline • Think about which terms are associated with the bottom shape of the hull rather than the topsides • Consider which term is mainly about the fore‑and‑aft curve of the deck instead of the side plating

✅ Before You Answer

• Match the definition: "outward curvature of the hull above the waterline" to the correct term • Eliminate any option that refers to inward curvature of the topsides • Eliminate terms that primarily describe the hull bottom angle or deck line curvature, not the side curvature above the waterline
