What type of hull rides on top of the water rather than pushing the water aside?
A planing hull.
Does saltwater damage fiberglass boats?
Yes, saltwater can damage fiberglass boats over time if not properly maintained. Saltwater can cause corrosion, weakening of the hull, and deterioration of the gelcoat. Regular rinsing and washing of the boat with fresh water after use in saltwater can help prevent damage.
Is hull the second biggest city in the east Yorkshire?
No, Hull is the biggest city in East Yorkshire, York is the second biggest city.
What is a characteristic of a catamaran?
A catamaran hull is one having either dual hulls or a main hull and secondary hull (three hulls is a trimaran). Like an outrigger canoe, having a dual base in the water means that a catamaran is usually more stable than a single hull. The reduction in the "roll" of the hull can result in a smoother ride.
What is the main frame or body of a ship?
The main frame or body of a ship is called the hull. It is the watertight body of a ship that provides structure and buoyancy. The hull determines the ship's stability, strength, and seaworthiness.
What is the cause of damage of hull on a ship?
collision

Where is the hull on a ship?
The hull is the outer shell of a ship. It generally included the frames ("ribs") that form the ship's shape, and the outer planking (wood) or plating (iron, steel, fiberglass) that covers the frames and makes the vessel watertight and strong.
What is the function of boat fenders?
to prevent damage to the hull of the boat and docks.
What has the author Walter Nohse written?
Walter Nohse has written: 'The investigation of electroplating and related solutions with the aid of the Hull cell' -- subject(s): Analysis, Plating baths
What happen if the hull of submarine ruptured?
All modern submarines are "dual hull" constructed. What you see on the surface is the outer hull, or "superstructure". The inner hull, where the main systems and crew are, is protected by the outer hull. Damage severity of either the outer or inner hulls depends on the boat's depth at the time. If deep enough, it doesn't take much damage to the hull, as sea pressure will be virtually unstoppable, even with the quick-reaction damage control skills of a submarine crew. However, if sea pressure isn't a factor and the flooding can be controlled, then it's possible to survive such a casualty. Again, it depends on the severity of the hull breach, and the depth at the time. Several modern submarines (my old boat included) have survived underwater collisions which produced severe damage.
Why was she nicknamed Old Ironsides?
The ship USS Constitution got the nickname Old Ironsides because the ship had iron plating in the hull. The ship was used during the Civil War.
How do barnacles damage boats?
Barnacles stick to the boat hull and grow creating a sort of skin over the hull. This in turn slows boat by taking away smoothness of hull and adding weight. Barnacles get knocked off and fall off , which pulls outer hull coating off allowing rot to get in.
When was first double hull ship built?
The first double hull ship, known as the "Oregon," was built in 1891. This design innovation improved the ship's safety by providing an additional layer of protection against hull damage and oil spills. Double hull ships have since become standard in the marine industry.
Will titanic be dissolved by the saltwater?
The saltwater will play only a small role in the decay of the Titanic wreck. Rusticles- the formations left behind as bacteria eat away at the ship's hull- are engulfing and destroying the wreck. The bacteria thrives on the iron in the steel plating, and is gradually weakening the hull. Titanic will not dissolve, but rather collapse from the immense strain of its own decks.
When would you use a bilge pump?
In a boat: when the hull is filled with too much water and the vessel is riding too low in the water. The bilge pump will pump the water out. Water can get in the hull through minor cracks or seaspray coming in through the top of the deck
Which type of hull is a planing hull?
flat bottom hull
