Boat's sheltered spot (4)

I believe the answer is:

cove

(Other definitions for cove that I've seen before include "where the sea comes in" , "A small inlet or slangy bloke" , "Rum fellow found in a small inlet" , "Small bay or Dickensian chap" , "A small inlet or estuary" .)

I've seen this clue in the USA Today.
