Explanation:
La cubierta principal suele tener una curvatura longitudinal denominada arrufo, y una curvatura trasversal denominada brusca, comba o vuelta de bao

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camber_(ship)

The camber is a measure of lateral main deck curvature in naval architecture. The curve is applied to a deck transversely, measured as the height of deck at centreline above the height of deck at side.
