Portuguese term or phrase: MAV
From the log of a tugboat that assisted a ship whose cables snapped during berthing:
"Às XXXX horas o chock line [sic] se partiu e a partir daí colhi todo o cabo de aço que estava no MAV (corda de 80% do total disponível no guincho de manobra)."
Any suggestions would be very gratefully received. Thanks in advance :)
