A point to which the water rises along the hull of a boat; the shape of the waterline and the handling characteristics of the boat change as the load changes.
The line along the hull, which marks the level of the surface of the water against the hull.
the line at a ships side formed by the surface of water at a specific draught
This is the curve defined by intersecting a horizontal plane (Z-value) through the hull geometry. All waterlines are parallel to the main design waterline or waterplane. The curve can be seen in the plan view of the boat.
The line of water along the hull of a kayak or other water craft when it is afloat.
A line painted on a hull which shows the point to which a boat sinks when it is properly trimmed.
The line at the side of the ship's hull which corresponds
The line where the hull meets the water. The shape of the waterline changes depending on the load.
One of a number of horizontal lines on the hull of a ship indicating the surface of the water when the ship is under various loads.
The line of water on the side of the canoe when it is afloat. The waterline will vary with the load.
The intersection of the hull and the surface of the water.
(1) The place on the hull the water just reaches when the boat is at rest. (2) (slang) The length of the hull at the waterline.
A point at which the water rides along a boatâ€(tm)s hull; the shape of the waterline and the handling characteristics of the boat change as the load changes.
The intersection of the water surface with.the hull of a canoe, or the shore.
The line where the water comes to on the hull of a boat. Design waterline is where the waterline was designed to be. Load waterline is the waterline when the boat is loaded. The painted waterline is where the waterline was painted. Actual waterline is where the waterline really is at any given time.
Waterline refers to an imaginary line marking the level at which ship or boat floats in the water. To an observer on the ship the water appears to rise or fall against the hull . Temperature also affects the level because warm water provides less buoyancy, being less dense than cold water.
