Crew put rings etc on maybe? (4,5)
I believe the answer is:
deck hands
'rings etc on maybe?' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot judge whether it can be defined by this definition.
'crew' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'crew' could be 'hands' (I've seen this before) and 'hands' is located in the answer.
The remaining letters 'deck' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
'put' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Times.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
