Jul 13, 2017 at 21:35 comment added Dr. Wolfgang Hintze The common root seems to be Germanic. In contemporary German iit is Steuerbord and Backbord (pronounced buckboard). It is traced back in German Wikipedia to the Vikings. Their ships had the rudder (Steuer) on the right side, and the helmsman had his back facing the left side of the ship.

Making the question on topic (editing on mobile is a PITA)
Jul 10, 2017 at 7:03 comment added Charlie Por mi parte creo que solamente la parte del origen de la expresión "estribor" (y, ya que te pones, "babor") es una pregunta muy interesante. Puedes recortar la pregunta, dejar aquí solo la parte referente al español y hacer la pregunta completa en Linguistics. Mi +1 ya lo tienes. :-)
Jul 10, 2017 at 6:24 comment added Charlie Found entries in dictionaries from the XVII and XVIII centuries with estribordo (1706, Stevens) and estriborda (1607, Oudin; 1609, Vittori; and others). But it seems the most common form was estribor already in the XVI century (but not before). And CORDE does not replace words with their modern versions, it registers words as are found in the documents.
Jul 10, 2017 at 3:07 comment added Diego Coincido con Carlos, creo que no es realmente una pregunta para Spanish.Se, si no para otro stack. Dicho eso, Etimologias de Chile dice sobre estribor que "En inglés la palabra estribor se corrompió en starboard. Sin embargo esta otra web sugiere que starboard surgió de manera "paralela" (desde el neerlandés) a estribor. El segundo link menciona que "la palabra como estribord (modernamente ha quedado como tribord)" que puede explicar que no la hayas encontrado en el dic. moderno
Jul 9, 2017 at 22:18 comment added Charlie My dear walen, I must say I love this question, but I'm afraid only the Spanish part about the origin and roots of estribor is on topic here. The English part is off topic. Maybe you can ask this same question in the English language site and ask for answers about the English part, or visit the Linguistics site and ask there the whole question, as I think it will fit perfectly there. Nonetheless, if I have the time I will help you with no doubt with the Spanish part.
