The gunnel, often spelled "gunwale," is the upper edge of a boat's side, running along the length of the hull. It serves as a structural component, providing strength and stability to the boat, while also acting as a surface for attaching various fittings and equipment. In addition, the gunnel helps prevent water from entering the vessel and can be used for seating or as a handhold.
