If it's right at all, then D B is nautical equipment.

Don't hesitate to come back if further hints are needed.

There is a Day Board (and a Day Beacon) which are aids to navigation - if that helps.

Thanks Colin.

The D B that I'm thinking of isn't used for navigation but is used under water.

Best Wishes.

Yes, Jim, I have it now that I have noticed 6 and 4 letters. I note, also, you like to help quizzers think things out for themselves by giving them additional clues. Good idea.
Best Wishes, Colin
