Ship's nethermost interior; nonsense (5)

I believe the answer is:

bilge

(Other definitions for bilge that I've seen before include "Nonsense (informal)" , "bull" , "Piffle - part of hull" , "Rubbish - water in boat" , "Very long film, book etc" .)

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