peer agreement (net): +1XXX makes the passion for boating a great business success Explanation: tradurrei mare con "boating" in questo caso, trattandosi di una passione, suppongo, per le imbarcazioni, ma sarebbe meglio conoscere l'intero contesto. Uso il verbo "make", anche se, come sostieni tu, ci sono molti modi per tradurre il periodo. |

52 mins confidence:
has created a successful business from a passion for the sea... Explanation: Hi Caterina, You might think about changing the order of the sentence so you can use a verb other than "transform" here. Something like "The shipbuilding company XXXX has created (an enormously) succesful business from a passion for the sea." might be just what you need here. Or if you prefer to keep the same order, I would suggest something along these lines: The shipbuilding company XXX has grown from (one man's/family's) passion for the sea into a successful business. |
