A ship propeller typically consists of blades attached to a central hub. These rotating blades generate thrust by accelerating water aft, propelling the vessel forward.
Accommodation
Ship accommodation refers to the sections of a vessel that are designed to provide a comfortable and functional living environment at sea. These areas typically include cabins for sleeping, mess halls for dining, galleys for food preparation, lounges for recreation, and sanitary facilities.
Anchor
An anchor is a heavy metal piece attached to the chain cables and is stored or secured in the hose pipe during the voyage/ship orientation. It can be either permanent or temporary with an additional sub class of sea anchors. All ships carrying anchors are of the temporary type; as they are not always fixed to the same position and often lowered at different position depending upon need. Together with its chain cables, connecting devices, windlass and chain stopper it is called anchor gear
Bridge
The ship's command center is located on the bridge. It manages the ship's navigation system, main engine, and crucial deck equipment to regulate the ship's motion.
Deck crane
A ship's derrick crane is a lifting device with essential parts including a mast or boom for reach, ropes or wires for hoisting and controlling, blocks and sheaves to create mechanical advantage, and winches to provide the lifting power.
Forecastle
The forecastle is the raised forward section of a ship's main deck. It typically houses equipment like the anchor windlass and mooring fittings, and historically provided shelter for the forward watch crew.
Funnel
A ship's chimney used to release boiler and engine smoke is called a funnel or stacks. Its function is to lift exhaust gases away from the deck.
Keel
The keel is the ship's foundational structural member, running lengthwise along the bottom and providing stability and strength.
Mast
A ship's mast is a tall vertical spar or pole that rises from the deck of a vessel to support sails, rigging, and sometimes navigational equipment.
Monkey Island
Monkey Island is a sort of deck located at the topmost accessible height of the ship and just above the bridge.
Ship hull
The ship's hull, the watertight body of the vessel, is composed of various structural parts that provide buoyancy, stability, and strength.
