Engines on sailboats, When? When Not?
Hmmm. . . .Even better would be motor motoring and sail sailing. The first
is the same as wearing a belt and suspenders. For example running the
internal diesel engine with the external outboard or adding rubber bands.
The second is defined as 'cracking on more sail.'
Works for me.

Since you're the only authority on the subject I appeal to you to swap
the meaning of the words, so that motoring will be motoring and
sailing will be sailing:
Motorsailing would be sailing with motor assistance and Sailmotoring
would be motoring with the additional use of sail.
If we could agree on this, we would all know exactly what we were
doing.
