Garboard

/ɡɑrbɔrd/ noun

Definition

The lowest line of planks on a ship's hull, the strakes that are attached directly to the keel.

Etymology

From Dutch 'gaarboord' or 'gaarboord,' combining 'gaar' (ready/prepared) and 'boord' (board/plank). The lowest planks had to be perfectly fitted, hence 'ready boards.'

Kelly Says

The garboard is the most critical row of wooden planks on a wooden ship—if these planks leak, the entire vessel sinks, so shipwrights inspected them with extreme care!
