Yes, the keel is laid first. Keels form the spine of the ship, though on a flat bottom ship, it may not be readily apparent. If you ever look at the structure of an old wooden ship, such as a Viking longship or a Roman ship, these vessels' keel was a solid and defined length of wood that formed the profile of the ship beneath the waterline. The rest of the ship was then built out from the keel. Daniel |
