"A barco viejo, bordingas nuevas" = ""To old ship, new bordingas"
In Bable (a dialect from Asturias), the Bordingas are some wood frames, which are put on each side of the chip, in order to reinforce the hull.So, this saying goes against the idea of associateing things which is not good to see them together.
