Craft of university's last rowing team in Berlin? (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

yacht

'craft' is the definition.
(I know that yacht is a type of motorboat)

'university's last rowing team in berlin?' is the wordplay.
'last' indicates one should take the final letters.
'rowing team in berlin?' becomes 'acht' ('eight' in German - eight can mean a rowing crew).
The last letter of 'university' is 'y'.
'y'+'acht'='YACHT'

'of' is the link.

(Other definitions for yacht that I've seen before include "Sailing boat" , "Fast sailing vessel" , "Sailing craft" , "Kind of boat" , "Sailboat" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
