Berth (moorings)

A berth is a designated location in a port or harbour used for mooring vessels when they are not at sea.

See Length overall and Berth (moorings)

Bowsprit

The bowsprit of a sailing vessel is a spar extending forward from the vessel's prow.

See Length overall and Bowsprit

International Organization for Standardization

The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) is an independent, non-governmental, international standard development organization composed of representatives from the national standards organizations of member countries.

Length between perpendiculars

Length between perpendiculars (often abbreviated as p/p, p.p., pp, LPP, LBP or Length BPP) is the length of a ship along the summer load line from the forward surface of the stem, or main bow perpendicular member, to the after surface of the sternpost, or main stern perpendicular member. Length overall and length between perpendiculars are ship measurements.

See Length overall and Length between perpendiculars

Marina

A marina (from Spanish, Portuguese and Italian: "related to the sea") is a dock or basin with moorings and supplies for yachts and small boats.

See Length overall and Marina

Sailing ship

A sailing ship is a sea-going vessel that uses sails mounted on masts to harness the power of wind and propel the vessel.

See Length overall and Sailing ship

Tall ship

A tall ship is a large, traditionally-rigged sailing vessel.

See Length overall and Tall ship

Waterline length

A vessel's length at the waterline (abbreviated to L.W.L) is the length of a ship or boat at the level where it sits in the water (the waterline). Length overall and waterline length are ship measurements.

See Length overall and Waterline length

Yacht

A yacht is a sail- or motor-propelled watercraft used for pleasure, cruising, or racing.
