I don't know what "overboard and facing the boat" means, exactly. Well, actually, I know what it means, but I don't know why you think it's relevant to where the bow is.The bow is the front of the boat. No matter where you are in relation to the boat, the bow will always be the front of the boat. This may be on your left, or right, or straight ahead of you, or behind you, depending on where you are.
if you're facing the stern of a boat and turn ninety degrees to your right, will you be facing the starboard side of the boat?
The bow of a boat the front. The back is called the stern or aft.The bow of a boat is the front of a boat in its normal orientation for moving through the water. Bows are often pointed to make it easier for the boat to move forward.
