    A stringer is a guy who makes up some line of bullshit just to screw with some new guy who comes on asking questions. The new guy who believes it is the stringee.

    Dean, a stringer is a structural hull element that gives the bottom of the hull it's strength. If you have a floor, they will be below the floor and out of sight but they are key to hull strength and if you have an inboard engine, they will be exposed in the bilge and the engine will be mounted to them.
    This link has a picture that will show you how stringers might be arranged in a hull. (http://www.tritonboats.com/about_triton/)

    A stringer were women brought to the united states in the 1950's soley for the purpose of running fishing lines through their mans rods. Not to be confused with the term "nutters". These were women who were also brought to the US and used to apply the bait to the hook. The bait often being called "the nut".

    Tom brown is rite the boats stringers can be compared to the human spine so to speak the stringers run from stem (front) to stern (rear). the bulkheads usually attach to and are located on the stringers.
