Right side of ship facing forward (9)

I believe the answer is:

starboard

(Other definitions for starboard that I've seen before include "Sailor's right" , "Right side at sea" , "right to 14 [YACHTS]" , "Literally, the steering side of a vessel" , "Opposite of port" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
