A bulbous bow is a protruding bulb at the bow (or front) of a ship just below the waterline. The bulb modifies the way the water flows around the hull, reducing drag and thus increasing speed, range, fuel efficiency, and stability. (5 years and 2475 days ago)

Something inexplicably appealing about this shot...

author says:

I think that there is something vaguely erotic in the shapes and it somehow strikes a subliminal chord. It is strange how people do react to it.
