What is the port of a boat?
"Port" is the left side of the boat while facing forward. "Starboard" is the right side of the boat while facing forward. The port is the left side of the boat when standing on the boat and facing the bow (the front of the boat). It is indicated with a red navigation light at night or during heavy fog. It is called the port because it is the side where the cargo is loaded onto the ship while at the port before sailing off. Port is the left side of the boat when facing forward. Left and port have the same number of letters is how I was taught to remember it.
