Starboard correct answers Right side of a vessel

Cleat correct answers Metal fitting on which a rope can be fastened

Propeller correct answers Rotates and powers a boat forward or backward

Displacement Hulls correct answers Boats with displacement hulls move through the water by
pushing the water aside and are designed to cut through the water with very little propulsion

Planing Hulls correct answers Boats with planing hulls are designed to rise up and glide on top
of the water when enough power is supplied. These boats may operate like displacement hulls
when at rest of at slow speeds but climb toward the surface of the water as they move faster

Length overall correct answers Length of the hull excluding any attachments, this dictates the
equipment the vessel must have to comply with federal and state laws

Transom correct answers Vertical surface at the back of the hull

Tiller correct answers Lever used to turn a rudder to steer a boat

Rudder correct answers A rear vertical stabilizer that controls side-to-side or yawing motion of
the aircraft nose.

Outboards correct answers -have more power per pound of weight then do inboard engines
-an outboard is a portable, self-contained package of an engine, gear case and propeller that is
attached to the transom of a boat
-steering of outboard boats is controlled by a tiller or steering wheel that swivels the entire
engine to direct propeller thrust

Inboards correct answers -have automotive engines adapted to operate in marine environments
-the engine turns on a drive shaft that runs through the bottom of the hull and is attached to the
propeller at the other end

Stern Drives correct answers -have quieter and more fuel efficient engines

, -are also known as inboard/outboards (I/Os) because they combine features found on both
inboard and outboard engines. Stern drives are four-stroke automotive engines adapted for
marine use and are mounted inside the boat.
-steering of stern-drive boats is controlled by the outdrive, which swivels like an outboard engine
to direct propeller thrust

Jet drives correct answers Jet drives propel a vessel by forcing a jet of water out the back of the
vessel. Directing this jet of water steers the vessel.
-Jet drives use an engine to power a strong water pump, which sucks up water and then forces
the water out the back to thrust the vessel forward

Impeller correct answers Device used to pump and force water under pressure through a steering
nozzle at the rear of the vessel

Sheets correct answers Lines (ropes) used to control the angle of the sails to the wind

Halyards correct answers Lines (ropes) used to raise and lower the sails

Personal watercraft correct answers A personal watercraft is a small vessel that uses an inboard
jet drive as its primary source of propulsion and is designed to be operated by a person or
persons sitting, standing or kneeling on the vessel rather than inside the vessel

File a float plan correct answers Before going out on a boat or personal watercraft, it is always a
good idea to tell someone where you are going and ask them to take action if you fail to return on
time

Maximum capacity plate correct answers Although federal laws only requires capacity plates
only on boats less than 20 feet in length, the National Marine Manufacturers Association
(NMMA) requires a capacity plate on all boats less than 26 feet in order to be certified by
NMMA

Swamp correct answers to fill with water

Capsize correct answers to turn on the side or turn completely over

Bilge correct answers Interior of the hull below the floorboards

Fueling issues for a PWC correct answers Serious accidents can also occur when fueling a
person watercraft (PWC). Spilled of leaked fuel can ignite and explode, especially in an enclosed
space. PWC should pay particular attention to these fueling guidelines

Give-way vessel correct answers The vessel that is required to take early and substantial action
to keep well away from other vessels by stopping, slowing down or changing course. Avoid
crossing in front of other vessels. Any change in course and/or speed should be large enough to
be readily apparent to another vessel.
