Wale
A wale is a thick plank of wood fastened to the side of a ship to provide protection from wear.In barging terms, the inwale connects the tops of the futtocks to provide the ledge on which the beams and carlings are rested. It is bolted through to the outer wale, which eventually would be flush with the double planking.Wale is also a term for a horizontal member of a tieback wall which transmits the force from the tieback to the beams.
