Pete           

Hello I'm Pete - but Phil has given me the nickname 'Passepartout'. I know a bit about sailing so I'm here to help Phil learn the ropes.

Here is my guide to the main parts of a yacht, a boat or a ship.

The bow is the front. The stern is the back.

The rudder is for steering.

The deck is the standing area.

The boom is the moving support for the sail. The mast is the stick thing for attaching the sail. The mainsail is the big sail.

The galley is the kitchen area down below.

The port side is the left side, and the starboard is the right side.

There you go.

a flat piece of wood or metal at the back of a boat that controls the direction of travel (by moving from side to side)
