English term

S/board cleaning.

English to French Tech/Engineering Ships, Sailing, Maritime boats
There is no sentence. It is part of a list of services provided by a shipyard.

Could it be "nettoyage de coques" ? however I have the feeling that there's more to it than just "nettoyage de coques".

Thanks for your help.

I have no idea but if it was why would they abreviate the "star" part ?
Tony M May 15, 2006:
Could it be 'starboard'?

"ship board cleaning"
Peer comment(s):

disagree Graham macLachlan : that would be "deck" or "deck-planking", I give you that some parts of a wooden deck have names with "-board", coverboard springs to mind, but these are specific (to wooden boats) and not general terms// in your example it mentions coque, pont and cale...
