Agreement accepted by rowing team makes a kind of sense (8)
I believe the answer is:
eyesight
'a kind of sense' is the definition.
'agreement accepted by rowing team' is the wordplay.
'agreement' becomes 'yes' (saying yes to something).
'accepted by' means one lot of letters goes inside another (inserted letters are accepted).
'rowing team' becomes 'eight' (eight rowers).
'yes' going within 'eight' is 'EYESIGHT'.
'makes' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for eyesight that I've seen before include "Power of vision" , "Seeing ability" , "Purpose of certain organs" , "Perceptive faculty" , "Seeing faculty" .)
