Is there a name for this part of a boat ?
 

Is there a name for the part of a sailboat that
protrudes above the deck with windows on the sides
(if it's not a pilothouse) ?

Thanks

Isn't that why they bought the boat?

FWIW, I have heard it referred to as the coach.

Cabin trunk, or trunk.

I use coach house. I've heard a ton of these variations, though,
including "saloon top", "saloon deck", "cabin deck" and so on.

They only should be called pilot houses when they contain a separate
and more or less enclosed steering station, although quite a few of
those are just hard dodgers on steroids.

Weighing in... ;-)

I mostly use "trunk cabin" or deck house."
