  1. left = port

    right = starboard


  2. PORT (red) = Left

    (I remember this in two ways. 1. 'Port' has 4 letters as does 'left.' Or you always pass the port to the left.

    STARBOARD (green) = Right

  3. On older sailing vessels, the steering board was on the right side so they had to come up to the dock in port on the left. So the port is left and the starboard is right.

  4. [L]<---Port         Starboard--->[R]
