steel hull
Ship's iron skin
A steel hull is the main body of a ship or boat constructed from steel rather than wood, fiberglass, or aluminum.
Steel hulls dominate commercial shipping and naval vessels because of their strength and durability, though they require maintenance against corrosion: The freighter's steel hull showed rust along the waterline.
