SHIP NOMENCLATURE
SHIP NOMENCLATUREDO NOWIn the United States, we commonly use the English system of measuring length & distance (feet, inches, miles). In most of the world, however, the Metric system is more commonly used to measure length & distance (meters, centimeters, kilometers).The result is that American shipping and logistic companies frequently have to manage length and distance numbers between the Metric and English systems.1 meter = 3.28 feet OR 1 foot = 0.30 meters1 centimeter = 0.39 inches OR 1 inch = 2.54 centimeters1 meter = 100 centimetersSHIP TERMSBridge - the room or platform from which the ship can be commandedForecastle the superstructure at or immediately aft of the bowMain Deck - the uppermost weatherproof deck, running the full length of a ship

SHIP TERMS Draft - the vertical distance between the waterline and the bottom of the hull (keel), Freeboard the vertical distance between the waterline and the topmost watertight deck (Main Deck)Depth - the vertical distance between the Main Deck and the keel
SHIP TERMS
SOME THOUGHTS Ship Draft + Ship Freeboard = Ship Depth
If your Ship Draft is greater than the depth of the water, your ship has RUN AGROUND
Do submarines have Freeboard????
TOO MUCH DRAFTOOPSY!!
