From Wikipedia
Coaming is any vertical surface on a ship designed to deflect or prevent entry of water. It usually consists of a raised section of deck plating around an opening, such as a cargo hatch. Coamings also provide a frame onto which to fit a hatch cover. The protective metal sheeting or plating protecting against water entry into ventilation shafts in large ships is called a coaming as it fulfills the same water-deflection purpose. The term was borrowed by the aviation industry to refer to a low rim around the opening for an unenclosed cockpit. The origin of the term is unknown. Coaming also refers to the raised structure around the cockpit of a kayak.
