What Does IB Stand For?
IB stands for Inboard
IB, or Inboard, refers to a configuration or positioning within a specific system, typically indicating elements that are located towards the center or interior of a structure, vessel, or vehicle. In marine contexts, "inboard" describes a type of engine placement or propulsion system situated within the hull, as opposed to outboard setups. This positioning can affect performance, stability, and design considerations, making "IB" a relevant term in various technical and engineering discussions.
