Bow of the cruise ship Spirit of Endeavour. The bow /ËbaÊ/ is the forward part of the hull of a ship or boat, the point that is usually most forward when the vessel is underway. Both of the adjectives fore and forward mean towards the bow. The other end of the boat is the stern. 1 Etymology.
Actually, it was the bowsprit. The figurehead was often carved on it. Nope, the bowsprit is the spar or mast that points forward from the bow of the ship. The extension of the bowsprit is the jibboom and the sail carried below the bowsprit is the spritsail. Figurehead is the correct name for the figurehead and there's no way it would be carved on the bowsprit.
