What does 'bilge' refer to?

  1. The top deck of a boat

  2. The interior of the hull below the floorboards

  3. A type of boat engine

  4. The back end of a boat

The correct answer is: The interior of the hull below the floorboards

Bilge refers to the interior of the hull below the floorboards of a boat, where any water that comes into the boat collects. A is incorrect because the top deck of a boat is typically referred to as the "deck" or "topside." C is incorrect because a bilge is not a type of boat engine. D is incorrect because the back end of a boat is often referred to as the "stern."
