Now that I know all these words How do I remember them so I don’t do something stupid like calling a Garboard a King Plank?

I am already learning!! I never knew our boats had a Breast Hook. That must be why we all call them she.

Thanks for creating the Old Boats Home. I have been in withdrawal since the death of the Boat Buzz. I need to get familiar with the format. Looks like it should work well.😁

Thanks for the diagram on all of the boat parts. I have been boating for 70 years, rebuilt a 1955 Continental and never knew the names of all of the parts that make up the boat. I do have the Chris Craft bible but never studied the parts.
