In researching 'stake' (new to me), I also came across 'coaming' which usually is to keep stuff out, not in, as in the following example:

Continuous coamings of approximately 150 mm height, but nowhere less than 50 mm above the upper edge of the sheer strake, are to be fitted to keep any spills on deck and away from
accommodation and service areas. In addition, the deck drainage system is to be provided with means for the disposal of any drainage without discharging it into the sea.

The sense in my text is certainly 'spill barrier' (keep stuff in) as suggested. Is 'coaming' also a possibility?

The main deck of the ship must be able to maintain the weather tightness. Large openings in the decks are cut to provide suitable hatchways to work cargo on general cargo and bulk carriers. Due to these large openings, the deck is substantially weekened, and measures have to be taken to strengthen the ships in the vicinity of these openings. On general cargo ships, it is usual to carry deck cargo. This also demands additional strengthening of the decks.

The decks are cambered from side to side and a slight sheer in the longitudinal direction to:

1. Reduce the amount of shipped seas.
2. Accelerate the drainage of shipped seas.

The line of deck plating connecting to sheer strake is called the Deck Stringer. Many modern ships especially large vessels have rounded sheer strakes as this provides additional longitudinal strength.
