Left side of the front of the ship

The term "starboard bow" refers to a specific orientation on a ship. The word "starboard" indicates the right side of the vessel when facing the front (or bow) of the ship. The term "bow" refers to the front part of the ship. Therefore, "starboard bow" points to the right side at the front of the ship.

Understanding maritime terminology is essential for navigation and communication on board. Knowing that "starboard" designates the right side and "bow" denotes the front helps to establish the correct orientation needed when addressing directions and locations on a ship.
