lowerable Explanation: Most occurrences of 'nedfirbar' on Google are from Danish sites - and most Norwegians wouldn't put it just like that. We would say 'rafts that can be lowered', from davits, as it were, as opposed to rafts that are tossed over board. But if you want to use an adjective, lowerable or davit-launchable are possible candidates. |
