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.

paseo en una red atada al barco

he buscado y buscado pero no hay referencias a este deporte en castellano; demasiado innovador, supongo. Por eso, mi opción sería usar una perífrasis, como "podrás mojarte mientras das un paseo en una red atada a (la botavara de)l barco" o algo parecido

se me olvidó comentar que es un deporte parecido a eso de montarse en una salchicha en la playa... que se llama busbob, según he visto. Pero no se ha formado aún ninguna palabra para esta modalidad con una red

Red de botalón

Boom en lengua marítima está a botalón, que es el palo de una embarcación que se saca hacia el exterior; Como opción Americanismo se podría decir>: Poste o estaca.
Espero que te pueda ayudar,yo tuve que recurrir al diccionario porque no había escuchado jamás lo de botalón pero lo puedes ver en el diccionario Larousse (www.larousse.com.ar) y está aceptado por la Real Academia Española. Suerte.
