keel - the chief timber or steel element extending along the entire length of the bottom of a boat or ship and supporting the frame. It is also called the backbone of a ship.
It's called the hull (pronounced hul). It's the lowermost part of a ship - the part of the ship that is submerged under water. The "line" along the center of the bottom of the hull of the ship is the keel of the ship. It's laid down first when the ship is built, and is a structural component. It could be looked at as the "backbone" of the ship.
The very bottom of a ship is where you find the keel. The keel runs the full length of the ship along its centerline and is the backbone of the hull. From the keel all the frames run out and up. the hull is attached to the frames. Picture the keel as the backbone and the frames as the ribs. The hull is the watertight skin that allows the ship to float. Within the hull are compartments (rooms) and at the top of the hull is the main deck. The superstructure is built upon the main deck.
