|| || || || || || || || ||
Red and Green Sidelights - ✔✔Navigational Lights
|| || || || || ||
Rear of a Boat - ✔✔Stern
|| || || || ||
Maximum Width of a boat - ✔✔Beam || || || || || ||
Distance between the water and the lowest point of the boat - ✔✔Freeboard
|| || || || || || || || || || || ||
Depth of water needed to float a boat - ✔✔Draft
|| || || || || || || || ||
, Keel - ✔✔Main centerline (backbone) of a boat or the extension of hull that increases
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
stability in the water || || ||
Displacement Hull - ✔✔What kind of Hull is this?: If you lower a boat into the water,
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
some of the water moves out of the way to adjust for the boat.
|| || || || || || || || || || || || ||
Displacement Hull - ✔✔What kind of Hull is this?: Limited to slower speeds || || || || || || || || || || || ||
Displacement Hull - ✔✔What kind of Hull is this?:Most large cruisers and most
|| || || || || || || || || || || || ||
sailboats have ? Hulls, allowing them to travel more smoothly through the water.
|| || || || || || || || || || || ||
Planing Hull - ✔✔What kind of Hull is this?:Boats with ? hulls can skim along at high
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
speed, riding almost on top of the water rather than pushing it aside.
|| || || || || || || || || || || ||
Planing Hull - ✔✔What kind of Hull is this?:Flat-bottomed and vee-bottomed hull
|| || || || || || || || || || || ||
shapes act as ? hulls. Most small power-driven boats, including personal watercraft
|| || || || || || || || || || || ||
(PWCs), and some small sailboats have ? hulls, allowing them to travel more rapidly
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
across the water. || ||
Personal Water Craft - ✔✔A small craft that uses an inboard jet drive as its primary
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
source of propulsion, and is designed to be operated by a person or persons sitting,
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
standing, or kneeling on the boat rather than inside the craft
|| || || || || || || || || ||
Planing Mode - ✔✔Your boat is in ? mode when enough power is applied so that the
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
hull glides on top of the water. Different boats reach planing mode at different speeds.
