Naval Form Terminology
Hello guys, I´ve got a lot of questions so, I´ll go straight to the point in each.
The context:
A military form where the events that took place during a vessel interdiction at sea are explained. The language structure is military - short sentences, lots of acronyms and naval terms, used in order to be very brief in the narrative.
The sentence/terms (target expression in quotation marks and caps):
XXXXX (boat name) "RIDING THE SEA PAINTER."
A "sea painter" is a line that is used to tie vessels to other vessels, with the purpose of keeping them together or towing. At least, from the nautical explanations I found. In this part, after the vessel was boarded, the Coastguard ship seizes the vessel. The context indicates that the seized boat, has been tied to the Coastguard boat.
"Painter" on its own comes out as "boza" in the nautical dictionary I found.
My try:
XXXXX ES REMOLCADO, o
XXXXX Está atado por la "BOZA Y ESTÄ SIENDO REMOLCADO"
Gracias.

According to this link (which PG has been quoting in previous questions), "cabo de un bote" > painter. Boat painter (for towing).
Whereas "sea painter" (for towing a lifeboat around the ship) is also "cabo de un bote".
