Sheer means the longitudinal upward curve of the deck, gunwales, and lines of a vessel, when viewed from the side.

Sheer means curve upwards of either or both ends from the level of the gunwale at midships or where the freeboard is lowest. Freeboard is the height of side, anywhere, from water to top of gunwale, or covering board. Ships, as a rule, look better with little or no sheer; the old frigates were nearly dead straight in line of rail and deck, to the eye, and were a little heightened at the ends by the form of the bulwarks and rails. They were considered the most beautiful craft afloat. A yacht without sheer would look ugly; and a boat should have sheer to look well, and must have sheer if to be used in rough water.
