It depends on whether you are talking about regular cargo ships or warships which under sail were called "men o war". Cargo ships do not have holes in the sides but the war ships had holes, above the water line, for them to poke the cannons through. Hence you could say the "men o war" had holes in the side but not cargo or passenger ships.
