it should have been "scheepsleiding"
Jack den Haan Apr 21, 2006:
@Andre: That what I had in mind, but to quite honest I have no idea as to why a ship would have such internal piping, other than for loading or unloading liquid heated pitch.

@Antoinette: Lijkt me helemaal niet zo'n domme vraag hoor!
Antoinette Verburg Apr 20, 2006:
Misschien een domme vraag, maar moet het niet 'scheepslAding' zijn?
Andre de Vries (asker) Apr 20, 2006:
internal system ? ship piping - meaning internal piping ?
