70% to passThe terms "cant frame" and "counter" are associated with the vessel's _______________.
A
steering engine
B
cargo hatch
C
forecastle
D
stern
AI Explanation
The correct answer is D) stern. The terms "cant frame" and "counter" are associated with the vessel's stern. The cant frame is the curved framing at the stern of a vessel, and the counter is the area just above the stern where the hull curves inwards. These features are specific to the design and construction of the stern, which is the rear part of the ship. The other answer choices are incorrect because they refer to different parts of the vessel: A) steering engine, B) cargo hatch, and C) forecastle, which are not related to the stern and the terms "cant frame" and "counter".
