    Default name of the walkway around the cabins on a M/Y

    a narrow one is called a toehold, a wide one a side deck, but what about a narrow walkway like a gangplank that goes around all the cabins from stern to bow?
    Walk Deck? Side walk? Side Plank?

    It is still a side deck.
    It really is quite difficult to build an ugly wooden boat.

    The wall around the decks are called "bulwarks", they have to be substantial to qualify. The cap rail is the "cap rail".
