That is, the right side of the ship. This term gave rise to "starboard". Large rowing boats initially had two oars with vertical blades serving as a rudder. This made loading quite cumbersome, so it was decided to reduce it to one. Since most sailors were right-handed, this oar was placed on the right side of the stern. Hence sailors began calling the right side the side of steering control, which soon became "starboard". 4 Comes from the Dutch (the word "boom" is the Dutch word for "tree").
