Forecastle

La prévision se réfère au pont supérieur d'un voilier en avant du mât, ou à la partie avant d'un navire avec les quartiers des marins. En ce qui concerne ce dernier sens, on entend «avant le mât» qui désigne tout ce qui concerne les marins ordinaires, par opposition aux officiers d'un navire. Dans la construction navale médiévale, un navire de guerre était généralement équipé d'une grande structure en forme de chateau à l'arc du navire. Il a servi de plate-forme pour les archers à abattre sur les navires ennemis, ou comme un bastion défensive si le navire était embarqué. Une structure semblable, mais généralement beaucoup plus grande, appelée aftcastle, était à l'extrémité arrière du navire, s'étendant souvent tout le chemin du mât principal à la poupe. Avoir des travaux supérieurs élevés sur le navire était préjudiciable à la performance de voile. Au fur et à mesure que les canons ont été introduits et que les armes à feu ont remplacé l'embarquement comme principal moyen de combat naval au XVIe siècle, le prévisualisé médiéval n'était plus nécessaire et, plus tard, les navires tels que le galion n'avaient qu'un faible niveau de prévision.

Forecastle refers to the upper deck of a sailing ship forward of the foremast, or the forward part of a ship with the sailors' living quarters. Related to the latter meaning is the phrase "before the mast" which denotes anything related to ordinary sailors, as opposed to a ship's officers. In medieval shipbuilding, a ship of war was usually equipped with a tall, multi-deck castle-like structure in the bow of the ship. It served as a platform for archers to shoot down on enemy ships, or as a defensive stronghold if the ship were boarded. A similar but usually much larger structure, called the aftcastle, was at the aft end of the ship, often stretching all the way from the main mast to the stern. Having such tall upper works on the ship was detrimental to sailing performance. As cannons were introduced and gunfire replaced boarding as the primary means of naval combat during the 16th century, the medieval forecastle was no longer needed, and later ships such as the galleon had only a low, one-deck high forecastle.
