In sailing terms, port is the left side of a vessel, and the light shown at night on that side is red. Green is the starboard, or right side of the vessel. A port is also a round window on a boat. So this photo is all mixed up. (5 years and 2757 days ago)

Maybe portholes on the port side, with some Port wine below decks? Nice.
Or, maybe it's POSH (Port Over, Starboard Home - from when the rich in the early 20th century would travel from the US to Europe and back home. That way the sun wouldn't be shining right in your windows. They would have "posh accomodations"
POSH; the popular notion that the word is an acronym from port out ( ward ), starboard home, said to be the preferred accommodation on ships traveling between England and India, is without foundation.
So the US had nothing to do with the word and the acronym does not exist. Even more mixed up.
Howdie stranger!
