Then in 1997, he was chosen by Paul Cayard for the crew of EF Language where he
enjoyed the ‘fire hosing’ that went with winning the Race.

el ef language es el nombre del barco que ganó la regata, no sé que tiene que ver una manguera contra incendios con celebrar la victoria, alguna idea?

Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

PRO (2): moken, Henry Hinds

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

Hola Joanet,

Aunque la redacción es ambigua, creo que no tiene que ver exactamente con ganar la carrera, sino con la carrera en sí.

Mira este video de la VOR titulado "fire hosing":

Suerte,

Álvaro :O)

P.D. No creo que sea un pregunta que se puede solucionar solo con conocmimientos bilingües y la ayuda de un diccionario. ;O)
