Boat sure to be blown up—by me? (8)
I believe the answer is:
saboteur
'me?' is the definition.
Both the answer and definition are singular nouns.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'boat sure to be blown up' is the wordplay.
'to be blown up' indicates an anagram.
'boat'+'sure'='boatsure'
'boatsure' with letters rearranged gives 'SABOTEUR'.
'by' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for saboteur that I've seen before include "Wrecker -- sour beat (anag)" , "Political wrecker" , "One engaged in malicious disruption" , "Rebel" , "One causes damage for political reasons" .)
