8 hrs confidence: peer agreement (net): +1
peer agreement (net): +1mooring at the buoys Explanation: De gebruikelijke uitdrukking is dat een schip "op de boeien" ligt, dat zijn er dan altijd twee of meer (in Rotterdam kunnen dat er zes zijn). In de betreffende context zou ik "mooring at the buoys" gebruiken. Beslist geen "parking" gebruiken!!! |
