What differentiates a bow and a stern, apart from the fact that one’s forward and one’s back? If you turned the boat around, would the bow change to the stern or would you have the boat the wrong way?

assuming this isnt satire, if you start reversing your car the trunk doesn't suddenly become the hood, it's the same with boats, the bow is generally pointed and the stern is generally curved

Most boats have inherent directionality, except maybe the simplest rafts and canoes. So the stern can be defined as the side with the rudder, or where the seats face away from, even if the boat is moving backwards.

It's kind of funny how every other question is ocean or boat related, and then question 2 is testing if you paid attention in Spanish class

Well, there is a scientific phenomenon called "El Nina" where the temperatures of the ocean get warmer, and all, but I think your reason is likely more why.

That one got me. You never hear Spanish round these parts, and I could not relate it to seafaring (thanks comments).

2nd best of all time for me, and that is basically down to me having to search a bit longer for the right answer, as I am not a native English speaker. Quite pleased.

Noooo I can't believe I got bow and stern mixed up again 😭🤣 9/10 on what should have been an easy 100% for me, got all of the others in great time, 8,938, would have made my top 10 scores if not for that 😅

Also bit of a fun Frankii fact for everyone: Coleridge went to the same school as me (don't worry, we weren't in the same year 😉)

10/10 and 9885! Very happy. Guess I'm a sailor at heart.

Lost a little time on the parrot question, was thinking "Salty" but then remembered "Polly wants a cookie!". Otherwise clean sailing.
