On the right side (9)

I believe the answer is:

starboard

(Other definitions for starboard that I've seen before include "Right-hand side of ship while facing forward" , "Opposite of port" , "Literally, the steering side of a vessel" , "Right side of ship or plane" , "Right side at sea" .)

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