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.

Pablo Martínez (X) Dec 15, 2018:
Los springs (o esprines si lo prefieren) no son transversales. Transversal significa generalmente "perpendicular" y no es el caso. Puedes decir que los traveses son transversales, pero los springs y los largos se disponen de forma oblicua, con una orientación tal que el de proa impide el movimiento del buque hacia proa mientras el spring de popa impide el movimiento hacia popa. Seguro que encuentran miles de dibujos o fotos si buscan "ship mooring arrangement". Nylon spring lines son cabos de amarre para uso como springs o cabos de linea de springs´para hacerlo algo más corto.

MPGS Dec 15, 2018:
esprín En náutica, lo que generalmente llamamos 'cuerdas' ('ropes') se llaman 'cabos' ('lines').
Los 'cabos' se diferencian fundamentalmente unos de otros bien por i) su naturaleza (composición (algodón, nilón...), grosor ...); ii) o bien por su uso específico ('drizas' -'halyards'-; 'jarcias' -'rigs'-; ...)
Los 'spring lines' son 'cabos de amarre transversales'; quedan definidos por su uso; y se traducen como 'esprines' (por mal que suene; como se dice 'eslinga').

Definition of spring line: a line led diagonally from the bow or stern of a ship to a point on a wharf and made fast to help keep the ship from moving fore and aft while docked

Cabos de nylon/Cabos de amarre en nylon

Spring lines are ropes used to secure boats, in spanish these are called [Cabo/s] or [Cabo de amarre]. The webpages I attached show a marketplace for them, and the Wikipedia page for the term.
Example sentence:

La línea más completa de cabos de amarre en nylon
