Ship anatomy refers to the various parts and structures that make up a ship. Key components include the hull, which is the main body that floats on water, and the deck, the flat surface on top where crew and cargo are located. Other important elements are the bow (front), stern (back), and keel, which provides stability and helps the ship move through water. Additionally, ships have various systems for navigation and propulsion. The engine powers the ship, while the rudder and propeller help steer and move it. Understanding ship anatomy is essential for safe operation and maintenance of maritime vessels.
