Ditto here with Rowing. Had real troubles when steering Dad's boat and he'd say go to port. Finally just said port and left both have 4 letters, and remembered it that way. Also, this has been fascinating. My office window looks out on the Boston cargo terminal and most of these box boats are unbelievably massive. That and they can't maneuver worth a damn. 3 also large tugs are needed to get them back out to sea.
