foredeck
The forecastle ( (listen) FOHK-səl; contracted as fo'c'sle or fo'c's'le) is the upper deck of a sailing ship forward of the foremast, or, historically, 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.

This area is often used for handling sails, ropes, and anchor chains, among other tasks.
