spring-fitted Explanation: Getting a boat ready for spring is called "Spring fitting-out," but when the Swedish source language efficiently uses a compound word like "Spring-equipped," I would say either "spring-fitted" ("The whole boat breathes quality, she is delivered spring-fitted and polished — ready for the next owner to enjoy her in the summer of 2020" or "spring-ready" - "she is delivered spring-ready and polished." |
