Explanation:
HOLA!! Se están refieriendo a un barco/embarcación que anteriormente fue un barco carguero. Según el contexto habría que ver cómo podés poner "former", quizás podría ser "ex-barco carguero" o explicarlo diciendo "barco/embarcación anteriormente utilizado/a como barco carguero. Te mando dos links donde hacen referencia a este tipo de embarcación. Suerte!!
