In simplistic terms.

-The front is the "Bow".

The left is the "Port side".

The right is the "Starboard side".

The back would be the "Stern".

The part that floats is the "Hull".

The back bone is the "Keel".

You also have words like Gunwale, foc'sle, thwarts, chine plates, fantail, free board, etc. Dependent on the size of your vessel.
