Base or mid-point


Explanation:
It depends on the context. If there are actual military bases then it would be bases. however they could mean mid-points or meeting points, halfway between various islands and other destinations.

The word replipunkt comes from French and is a military term meaning a protected location outside the area of conflict, where the the combating military units could retire to (according to Fremmedord blå ordbok ; Synonymer blå ordbok).
