Fathoms

A fathom is a unit of length used primarily in maritime contexts to measure water depth. One fathom is equivalent to 6 feet or approximately 1.8288 meters.

The fathom is defined as 6 feet, making it a convenient measurement for nautical and maritime applications, particularly for depth soundings and underwater measurements.

Fathoms are commonly used in navigation, fishing, and marine activities to describe the depth of water. The unit provides a practical measurement for underwater distances and has historical significance in maritime practices.

Kens

A ken is a historical unit of length used in various cultures, particularly in Asia. The length of a ken can vary depending on the region and context. In Japan, one ken is approximately equivalent to 6 feet or about 1.8288 meters.

The ken was traditionally used in architectural and construction measurements, particularly in the design of buildings and layout of spaces.

Ken measurements were utilized in historical architecture and construction practices in Asian cultures. Although not commonly used today, the unit provides historical context for traditional measurement standards and practices in building and design.
