Romanian term or phrase: în curent / în contracurent
Buna ziua!

As avea nevoie de traducerea structurilor "în curent / în contracurent" in limba engleza.

Context:
"Luntrile erau ambarcaţiuni mici, construite pe schelet de lemn, cu coca din piei de animal şi acoperite cu bitum natural pentru impermeabilizare.
Aceste nave transportau mărfuri de valoare, atât în curent cât și în contracurent, în cantităţi relativ mici şi aveau viteză de deplasare mare pentru acea perioadă."

Va multumesc anticipat pentru orice ajutor acordat!
