The area in the lower part of the hull where water collects, also the part of the hull where the bottom turns into the side, the "turn of the bilge".

Curved part of ship's hull where the bottom meets the side.

the lowest part of the ship inside the hull. The bilge water, either from rain or from seas breaking abroad would collect in this area.

The largest circumference of a cask The flat part of a ships bottom To break, a vessel is bilged if her planks are broken in by violence Any part of a rope between the ends

The lower part of a ship's hull, extending outward from the keel to port and starboard to where the sides rise vertically. Any water in a vessel will collect there, thus ships always "pump their bilges".

The lowest part of the ship's interior.

The lowest part of a vessel's interior hull. You will, of course, employ a bilge pump to rid the bilge of water. Occasionally, you might hear someone described as being full of bilge. It is not a compliment.

The lowest point inside a vessel. (ie: where the tiny screw will end up when you drop it.)

The lowest part of the ship's hull; location of most crew housing

The part inside the hull above and around the keel where water will collect

Lowermost spaces of the ship's inner structure

the lower inner space of a vessel's hull.

curve of a ship's hull joining the side and bottom

The lowest part or the interior of a vessel. Space under the floor.

water accumulated in the bilge of a ship

take in water at the bilge; "the tanker bilged"

The lowest of a hull or compartment within the vessel where water can collect. In a yacht it is the bottom of the accommodation. If not pumped out on a regular basis the water that collects in the bilges can become smelly and this will pervade the interior of the boat. The bilge of an engine compartment must be watched carefully, because oil that drips from the engine may not be pumped overside.

the curve of a hull where it changes from the side to the bottom.

The lowest internal part of the hull where ballast is kept and bilge water collects.

another term for ballast water.

The area of the hull below the waterline. The lower internal part of a boat's hull, adjacent to the keels. The place where water collects

The lowest part of the hull's interior on either side of the keel. The turn of the bilge is the transition of the hull shape from essentially horizontal to vertical in section, described as hard if the transition is relatively abrupt, or slack if the transition is gradual.

area in the boat that collects storm water, extra run off water from waves and activity inside the boat. The bilge is at the very bottom of the inside the hull.

The space between the bottom hull planking and the ceiling of the hold.

The lowest regions inside the hull of a boat. Most of the water that enters the hull of a boat will find its way to the bilge. Bilge pump - a pump to remove water from the bilge.

The lowest part of a boat's hull.

A rounding of the hull along the length of the boat where the bottom meets the side.

the low point on the inside of a kayak's hull.

Nautical term describing the lower inside hull of a ship, up to the point where the sides become vertical.

The interior of the hull below the floor boards.

the curved part of a ships underwater body where the bottom plating turn towards side shell plating

Where the hull's bottom turns up into its sides. See chine.

Where the sides of a vessel curve in to form the bottom.

Parts Bilge keel Parts

The very bottom of a ship's hull, also nonsense.

Lowest part of a boat's interior.

the lowest part of a boat, designed to collect water that enters the boat

When a hull is cut in a cross section, the bilge is the point of maximum curvature between the bottom and the side of the canoe below the waterline.

Lowest section inside a boat's hull where water collects.

Spaces at the very bottom of the ship's infrastructure

The lower most point on the ship's hull. This is the area where the crew lives on most cruise ships.

This is a storage area in the bottom of the boat for all the things you dropped and can not find. Also a mixing area for water, fuel and head output; making retrieval of said dropped items a real adventure.

or Bilge water - something that is utter nonsense. "That's a lot of bilge water." The bilges are the lowest part of the ship and collect nasty stinky water.

Interior of the hull below the floorboards

The rounded, lower part of a ship's hull.

The lowest part of the interior of the boat where water collects.

Intersection of bottom and side. May be rounded or angular as in a chine form hull. The lower parts of holds, tanks and machinery spaces where bilge water may accumulate.
