garboard strake Explanation: I admit this is very close to Diarmuid's answer, but I think it is the more commonly used term among boat builders. See ref. 2 for a Norwegian view. Deane's "Garboard plank" is probably more North American. Reference: http://www.boat-building.org/learn-skills/index.php/en/wood/...
