Links to Nautical Terms
Hi there. I don't know why I'm posting this, but I thought it would be possible for me to ask a favor here. If you are one of English native speakers as well as being familiar with something related to the Nautical Terms, please help me find some valuable links where I'm able to study more about them. Well, I'm asking this because I started to work in a cruise port on Hainan Island. Apart from that, the Chinese online resources are so limited that I've desperately spent hours digging around the net. Anyway, any help would be very much appreciated!!

Basic terms here, but they cover the subject quite well.
