The gunwales is the top edge of the side of a boat.
The gunwales are located along the upper edges of the sides of a boat, serving as the structural framework that supports the deck and provides additional stability. They typically run from the bow (front) to the stern (back) and can be found at the waterline, marking the transition between the hull and the deck. Gunwales often provide a surface for mounting accessories and can also enhance the boat's overall strength and integrity.
