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

house - that's all

house - that's all - or cabin top

Have heard it referred to as the "doghouse" ;-)

No that is the place men sleep when their wives are upset

Isn't that why they bought the boat?

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."

In the UK it's mostly called the coachroof or cabin top, with the raised
part at the rear being the doghouse, deckhouse, or wheel house.
