La Fundación del Español Urgente (Fundéu BBVA), con el asesoramiento de la Real Academia Española, indica que el término inglés "spinnaker" se refiere a un tipo especial de vela grande, con mucha bolsa, que se utiliza cuando se navega de empopada; se puede hispanizar como "espináker" o utilizar los equivalentes españoles "vela de balón" o "de globo". Si se emplea el vocablo inglés, lo adecuado es resaltarlo en cursiva o, cuando no se pueda, entre comillas. 1, record 1, Spanish, - vela%20de%20bal%C3%B3n
