'''Ship'''s are large watercraft capable of offshore navigation.
Ships can be measured in terms of overall length, length of the waterline, beam (breadth), depth (distance between the crown of the weather deck and the top of the keelson), draft (distance between the highest waterline and the bottom of the ship) and tonnage.
Some terms about ships:
*SHIPFITTER
A mechanic who makes templates, marks, assembles, and fastens in place plates and shapes for the hull of a ship. Should be able to do any fitting on ship.
*SHIP'S LOG
A book with a record of every occurrence and incident concerning the ship.
*SHIPWRIGHT
