Poop deck - Definition and Overview

In naval architecture, a poop deck is a deck that constitutes the roof of a poop cabin built in the aft (rear) part of the superstructure of a ship. It is meant to be a vantage point for the Captain or other officers, as the entire ship is often visible from this spot.
