peer agreement (net): +6viento y marea (small fiberglass offshore fishing boat) Explanation: There are a few references to "viento y marea" fishing in Colombia, from which some of its main characteristics can be deduced, but I think the best policy here is to preserve the Spanish term (in italics), and add an English descriptive translation the first time it is used, because it's a very specific local custom. In your text "viento y marea" clearly refers to a type of boat (a "barco/embarcación/lancha de viento y marea"), with which the type of fishing called "pesquería de viento y marea" is practised. It seems to be a wooden-framed fiberglass boat, which fishes offshore for pelagic species, and is away from port for several days at a time. It generally uses "redes de enmalle" (gillnets). This is from a book in English called Viability and Sustainability of Small-Scale Fisheries in Latin America and the Caribbean: "In the two largest settlements and coastal ports, Buenaventura and Tumaco, as well as other medium-sized towns such as Guapi, an artisanal fleet locally called viento y marea (wind and tide) is active. This fleet, which developed during the last 20 years, can move further away from the coast and stay more days at sea and uses gill nets with mesh sizes ranging from 3" to 6". Small boats (10-15 m long, 3 m wide, using two 15hp. outboard engines) operate in this fleet year-round with an average time at sea of 9 days." https://books.google.es/books?id=WBtfDwAAQBAJ&pg=PA88 "Si la pesca es avanzada, pueden llegar a faenar hasta 15 personas, haciendo uso de embarcaciones de madera con recubrimiento en fibra de vidrio conocidas como "las de viento y marea", por temporadas de 1 a 2 semanas y son de mayor eslora" https://repository.icesi.edu.co/biblioteca_digital/bitstream... (p. 30) "Offshore boat fishing, sometimes called deep sea or open water fishing, is fishing in deep water (more than 30 metres) and at some distance from land." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recreational_boat_fishing#Offs... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 47 mins (2018-12-29 17:24:36 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Además, en los últimos años han comenzado a generarse nuevas pesquerías que todavía no han sido reglamentadas como las de "Viento y Marea", que utiliza red de enmalle de diferentes ojos de malla, con autonomía fuera de puerto de 8 días promedio, pescando más costa afuera". https://issuu.com/comunicacionesambiental/docs/avances_de_ac... (p. 62) "Existen un promedio de 50 embarcaciones actualmente las cuales son de madera, recubiertas con fibra de vidrio y con dos motores fuera de bordo (40 a 75 HP); sus faenas van de 8 a 15 días sin regresar a la orilla hasta finalizar su recorrido (denominadas "viento y marea")" https://expeditiorepositorio.utadeo.edu.co/bitstream/handle/... (p. 19; p. 44 of file). -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 49 mins (2018-12-29 17:26:49 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- I think "offshore fishing boat" is the minimum, and you can add further adjectives depending on how detailed you think the translation needs to be. I think "small" is appropriate because offshore fishing boats in most parts of the world are usually quite a bit larger than these. |
