Charley Noble

Charley Noble is a slang term used to refer to the galley smokestack on a ship. It is also known as the 'galley stack' or 'stovepipe'. The Charley Noble is used to vent the smoke and fumes from the cooking stoves in the galley, preventing them from spreading throughout the ship. The term is believed to have originated in the mid-19th century and its exact origin is unclear. However, it is thought to have been named after a famous American naval officer or a British naval officer. The Charley Noble is an important part of a ship's galley and helps to maintain a safe and healthy environment for the crew.
