    What is a Fathom?

    Definition: A Fathom (symbol: ftm) is a unit of length in the International System of Units (SI). The fathom is one of the oldest units of length measured primarily in seaborne applications, and this unit measures six feet or 72 inches in value. The word "fathom" comes from the Old English word folding of "ftm," with a meaning that encompasses the idea of its physical meaning, ‘to encircle’. hence the fathom was adopted as the most familiar unit for them in this line. The spirit is of the fathom is like standing at a dock, with your arms spread wide, trying to guess how deep the water below you is.
    History of ftm: In the late medieval period the fathom began to be standardized to be used as a measurement for distance, it was set at 6 feet. It featured a simplicity that caused it to become indispensable in navigation, ship construction, and fishing since sailors required correct measurements in order to avoid obstacles on the sea floor. Since older charts depicted ocean depths some of them provided information in terms of fathoms and assisted the mariner on the contours of the seabed.

Before this uniform system, measurements were and came with problems contributing to bottlenecks in commerce and science.
