Spanish term or phrase: piloto
Buona sera, mel mio lavoro di traduzione mi sono imbattuta nel termine "piloto". L'ho tradotto con capitano ma mi è sorto il dubbio che non sia corretto. "se reunìa con otros pilotos, marineros y pescadores". Può essere usato come sinonimo di capitàn? Grazie mille in aniticipo!!

Explanation:
Piloto
El piloto era el encargado de la navegación en los veleros antiguos, equivaldría parcialmete al primer oficial de la actualidad. Era una persona instruida, tanto en letras como en matemáticas, pues precisaba manejar las cartas y los instrumentos de navegación. Además, se precisaba que tuviera práctica en la navegación. En la flota española de Indias, desde 1503, debía pasar una especie de examen en la Casa de Contratación de Sevilla[5] .
