Sorry Peter. My fault. For some reason autocorrect changed my text from ris to tis and I didn't notice. I've put it right now in my post.

Ah DeepL did much better with that. Without making any changes it translated "Le Cam avail trois ris dans sa grande voile" to "The Cam has three reefs in her mainsail". That was easily corrected by clicking on the obviously wrong words to " Le Cam has three reefs in his mainsail "

I am a great fan of DeepL and I use it whenever I am asked to translate something into English. It quickly gives me a draft which I can correct and, if necessary, turn into colloquial English. After using it now for about 3 years I find it is improving to the point that correction is often not needed.
