That means a gash 300 foot long... from there to there... below the waterline.

And I'd like you to pay attention to the shape of the iceberg and where it is at the waterline.

Then I took the two cylinders and I put them in the bows of the African Queen, right down near the waterline, so when we rammed you...

The tracks are elevated about eight feet from the waterline normally, but at that point the water had receded to a level three or four feet below normal.

As the world struggles to emerge from the economic near collapse of last fall, there is one sub group that has slid below the waterline in record numbers formerly middle class women.

They can be up the size of your car and are very dangerous for ships and boats because usually they sit just at the waterline where they are not easy to spot.

The hull of the ship was a 'turret deck' design decks below the waterline were wider than those above water, and a flat, reinforced hull allowed the ship to rest on the bottom.

The profile has therefore been that of a markedly elongated hull with a ratio of breadth to length at the waterline of at least 1 5, and in the case of ancient Mediterranean galleys as much as 1 10 with a small draught, the measurement of how much of a ship's structure that is submerged under water.

It is clear to many of us, I think, that here on this floor of United Nations Headquarters, one end of the corridor is travelling rather low in the water indeed, some would say that it is shipping too much water while at this end the General Assembly and the Economic and Social Council are still travelling somewhat above the waterline.
