Deck (ship)

A deck is a permanent covering over a compartment or a hull of a ship.

See Chain boat and Deck (ship)

Draft (hull)

The draft or draught of a ship is a determined depth of the vessel below the waterline, measured vertically to its hull's lowest—its propellers, or keel, or other reference point.

See Chain boat and Draft (hull)

Elbe

The Elbe (Labe; Ilv or Elv; Upper and Łobjo) is one of the major rivers of Central Europe.

See Chain boat and Elbe

In electricity generation, a generator is a device that converts motion-based power (potential and kinetic energy) or fuel-based power (chemical energy) into electric power for use in an external circuit.

See Chain boat and Electric generator

Electromagnet

An electromagnet is a type of magnet in which the magnetic field is produced by an electric current.

See Chain boat and Electromagnet

France

France, officially the French Republic, is a country located primarily in Western Europe.

Paddle steamer

A paddle steamer is a steamship or steamboat powered by a steam engine that drives paddle wheels to propel the craft through the water.

See Chain boat and Paddle steamer

Paddle wheel

A paddle wheel is a form of waterwheel or impeller in which a number of paddles are set around the periphery of the wheel.

Port and starboard

Port and starboard are nautical terms for watercraft, aircraft and spacecraft, referring respectively to the left and right sides of the vessel, when aboard and facing the bow (front).

See Chain boat and Port and starboard

Propeller

A propeller (colloquially often called a screw if on a ship or an airscrew if on an aircraft) is a device with a rotating hub and radiating blades that are set at a pitch to form a helical spiral which, when rotated, exerts linear thrust upon a working fluid such as water or air.

See Chain boat and Propeller

Prototype

A prototype is an early sample, model, or release of a product built to test a concept or process.

See Chain boat and Prototype

Pump-jet

A pump-jet, hydrojet, or water jet is a marine system that produces a jet of water for propulsion.

See Chain boat and Pump-jet

Rapids

Rapids are sections of a river where the river bed has a relatively steep gradient, causing an increase in water velocity and turbulence.

See Chain boat and Rapids

Riqueval Tunnel

The Riqueval Tunnel is a -long tunnel on the St Quentin Canal, close to the commune of Bellicourt, in the department of Aisne, France.

See Chain boat and Riqueval Tunnel

Riverboat

A riverboat is a watercraft designed for inland navigation on lakes, rivers, and artificial waterways.

See Chain boat and Riverboat

Rudder

A rudder is a primary control surface used to steer a ship, boat, submarine, hovercraft, airship, or other vehicle that moves through a fluid medium (usually air or water).

See Chain boat and Rudder

Saale

The Saale, also known as the Saxon Saale (Sächsische Saale) and Thuringian Saale (Thüringische Saale), is a river in Germany and a left-bank tributary of the Elbe.

Stern

The stern is the back or aft-most part of a ship or boat, technically defined as the area built up over the sternpost, extending upwards from the counter rail to the taffrail.

See Chain boat and Stern
