Explanation:
"La proa queda velando unos 10 metros en posicion vertical" (La proue bien verticale reste en surface à quelques dix mètres.)

N.B. Il est difficile de déterminer si la proue a fait surface, est en train d'émerger sans plus de contexte. Néanmoins, avec le peu d'indices contenus dans la phrase, si elle est en position verticale, cela laisse croire qu'elle est tout à fait visible, donc pas seulement émergente...

À vous d'en adapter le sens.
