Cabotage
1911 Encyclopedia Britannica
the French term for coasting-trade, a coastpilotage. It is probably derived from cabot, a small boat, with which the name Cabot may be connected; the conjecture that the word comes from cabo, the Spanish for cape, and means "sailing from cape to cape," has little foundation.
