The gunwale (/ËÉ¡ÊnÉl/) is the top edge of the side of a boat. Originally the gunwale was the gun ridge on a sailing warship. This represented the strengthening wale or structural band added to the design of the ship, at and above the level of a gun deck.
A boat is a watercraft of a large range of sizes designed to float, plane, work or travel on water. Small boats are typically found on inland waterways (e.g., rivers and lakes) or in protected coastal areas. However, boats such as the whaleboat were designed for operation from a ship in an offshore environment. In naval terms, a boat is a vessel small enough to be carried aboard another vessel (a ship). Another less restrictive definition is a vessel that can be lifted out of the water. Some definitions do not make a distinction in size, as bulk freighters 1,000 feet (300 m) long on the Great Lakes are called oreboats.
