Glossary on Maritime Terminology Crew 1. Captain: The captain is in command of the ship and is responsible for the safety of all crew and the vessel 2. 1st Officer: The Mate is in charge of the onboard day to day running of the ship. The Mate is also the Ship’s Safety and Security Officer. 3. 2nd Officer: The 2nd Mate is the onboard Navigator responsible for maintaining up to date navigational information. 4. 3rd Officer: The Bosun looks after the maintenance of the ondeck areas, the rigging and the sails. 5. Chief Engineer: The Chief Engineer is in charge of the engineering dept and responsible for the upkeep of all engineering systems. 6. 2nd Engineer: The 2nd Engineer does all the daily routine checks 7. Medical Purser: The Medical Purser is a medical practitioner. She or he is responsible for the medical side of things and lots more 8. Cook: Arguably, the Cook is one of the most important people on board since sailing Tenacious tends to give people a good appetite! 9. Watch Leader: Watch Leader’s play an integral role in the daily routine of the ship.

10. Bosun’s Mates: There are usually two Bosun’s Mates per trip. They help the Bosun with ‘salty sea-dog type stuff’ which roughly translates into a lot of work on the sails and rigging and maintenance.

Types of Ships 1. Sailing ships: A sailing ship is a sea-going vessel that uses sailsmounted on masts to harness the power of wind and propel the vessel. 2. Riverboats: A riverboat is a watercraft designed for inland navigation on lakes, rivers, and artificial waterways. 3. Ferries: A ferry is a merchant vessel used to carry passengers, and sometimes vehicles and cargo, across a body of water.

4. Barges: A barge is a big, flat boat that can transport heavy goods over water. You might see a barge carrying a load of new cars down a river.

5. Container Ships: As the name suggests, a vessel structured specifically to hold huge quantities of cargo compacted in different types of containers is referred to as a container vessel (ship). 6. Bulk Carrier Ships: Bulk carriers are a type of ship which transports cargoes (generally dry cargo) in bulk quantities. The cargo transported in such ships is loose cargo i.e. without any specific packaging to it and generally contains items like food grains, ores and coals and even cement. 7. Tanker Ships: Tanker ships are specialised vessels for carrying a large amount of liquid cargo. Tankers are further sub-divided into different types on the basis of the cargo they carry.

8. Oil Tankers: Oil tankers mainly carry crude oil and its by-products. 9. Liquefied Gas Carriers: A gas carrier (or gas tanker) is a ship designed to transport LPG, LNG or liquefied chemical gases in bulk. 10. Chemical and Product Carriers: A chemical tanker is a type of tanker ship designed to transport chemicals and different liquid products in bulk 11. Roll-On Roll-Off Ships: Ro-Ro is an acronym for Roll-on/roll-off. Roll-on/roll-off ships are vessels that are used to carry wheeled cargo. 12. Offshore Vessels: Offshore vessels mainly help in oil exploration and construction jobs at sea. Offshore vessels are of several types. 13. Dredgers: Dredging is an excavation activity usually carried out underwater, in shallow seas or freshwater areas with the purpose of gathering up bottom sediments and widening Parts of Ships 14. Monkey Island: Monkey Island is a sort of deck located at a topmost accessible height of the ship and just above the bridge 15. Bridge: The ship’s bridge is the commanding station of a ship. It controls the ship movement through its navigational equipment. 16. Funnel: A Funnel or Stacks is a chimney on a vessel used to discharge engine and boiler smoke.

1. Accommodation: The accommodation area is the house for crews and lives. It has all the amenities along with offices, gym, crew cabins, hospital, salon, recreation room, common rooms, laundry and galley.

2. Funnel Deck: Funnel releases exhaust gases into the atmosphere from engine exhaust room of the ship. It has a similar function to chimneys in factories.

3. Boat Deck: Ship hull structure is covered by the deck floor. There can be multiple decks or deck sections on a ship. The deck at the top which bears maximum exposure to weather is referred to as the main deck or weather deck.

4.

Flying Deck: It is an extended area on top of a weather deck or an open area of the superstructure which provides an unobstructed view of the fwd and aft along with the sides of the vessel to the navigational officers.

5. Stem: Front-most part of the boat or ship’s bow is termed as Stem of the ship. The keel itself is extended up to gunwale to form the curved edge called stem of the ship.

6. Forecastle: The forecastle is one of the foremost parts of the ship of length less than 7% of total deck length.

7. Foredeck: The foredeck is the forward part of a weather deck, between the superstructure and the foc’sle superstructure.

8. Bulbous Bow: It is a jut out bulb at the bow of the vessel just below the W/L. It cuts the water and tweaks the water flow around the hull, increasing the vessel’s speed, fuel efficiency and stability.

9. Stern: The stern is aft end structure and designed to provide low resistance, high propulsion efficiency and avoid vibrations.

10. Poop Deck: It serves as a roof to the cabin constructed in the aft of the ship. It facilitates the captain and helmsman to supervise the entire working crew.

11. Side Thrusters: These are somewhat like a propeller and fitted on either side of the bow of the ship. It helps in manoeuvring ship under slow speed in congested waters near ports or canals. These are also referred to as tunnel thruster.

12. Rudder: Without steering, we can’t move a vehicle in the desired direction; so the propeller propels the ship and rudder steer the ship. The rudder is a flat hollow structure, housed in the aft of the propeller.

13. Propeller: It is a mechanical device having blades fitted on a central shaft. These blades rotate and their rotational energy is converted into pressure energy and due to this, the propeller produces thrust required for propulsion. It pushes the sea water backwards and, in turn, the sea water helps the ship in moving forward.

14. Paint Room: A small onboard area is required in marine vessels to handle and store paint. This room is known as the Paint room.

15. Emergency Generator Room: When the main supply goes out of order then small separate generator supplies electricity for emergency loads. This is called an emergency generator.

16. Ballast Tanks: The compartments maintained specially to carry water, which serves the purpose of ballasting and stabilizing the vessel, are termed as Ballast Tanks.

17. Bunker tanks: The tanks on the ships which are used to store fuel and lube oils on ships are known as bunker tanks

18. Duct Keel: Duct keel is a hollow structure which consists of two longitudinal girder and solid plates and is welded to form box type structure, which is generally provided in double hull ships. 19. Ship Cargo gear (Derrick/Cranes etc): Derricks (Cranes) are used to lift and carry the safe working load on a ship.

1. Samson Post/King Post: t is a heavy vertical post which supports the cargo booms. 2. Cargo hold: Enclosed space to retain and store cargo or freight container carrying coal, grain and salt is referred to as a cargo hold. 3. Hatch Cover: To prevent the cargo storage from any kind of spoilage, especially to make storage spaces air as well as watertight, hatch covers, are required. Generally, to save the food items ( or any other cargo) transported by ship from rain during the voyage. 4. Freeboard: Freeboard can be defined as the distance measured from the waterline to the higher edge of the freeboard plating/deck plating at sides of amidships. 5. Hull: The hull is a watertight body of a vessel which may be open or may be partially covered with a deck. 6. Deck House: It is a house-like structure on the upper deck.

7. Anchor : Sometimes, a ship may have to wait outside a harbour. She then has to anchor in a suitable place. When the anchor is lowered (or dropped) to the seabed, Rooms of a Ship 1. Engine room: The ship’s engine(s), generators and other machinery are located here. The engine(s) turn(s) a steel shaft 2. Chart/Radio Room : The chart room is located aft of the pilot house. The progress of the ship is plotted on charts in this room. 3. Aft Control Station : A secondary control station with winch controls and ship maneuvering controls is located aft on this level. The usual site for ship control is in the pilot house, 4. Captain's Stateroom : Adjacent to the chief scientist's room is the captain's room, which also serves as the captain's office. 5. Hospital : There are 5 bunks and various medical supplies. (See Section VII for more on medical matters.) 6.
