A commercial cargo ship (1) is configured in such a manner that, in the first region (Ra) of the ship body which includes the portion thereof between the forepeak (Pf) and a first position (Ps1) which is located behind the fore perpendicular (F.P.) in the lengthwise direction of the ship at the distance of 3% of the length between perpendiculars of the ship body, the shape of a portion of a transverse cross-section perpendicular to the ahead direction, the portion being located above the bow flare (3), is formed in a shape having: lower portions (31, 32) which are located above the load water line (W.L.) and which are expanded upward and outward from below; and upper portions (34) which are located above the lower portions (31, 32) so as to extend upward from the sides and which are bent inward. Ocean waves striking the lower part of the bow flare are conducted upward along the shape of the bow flare, and the impact of the ocean waves on the bow flare and an increase in in-wave resistance are reduced.
