Everybody has gone wrong about old ship (7)
I believe the answer is:
galleon
'ship' is the definition.
(type of ship)
I cannot understand how the remainder of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for galleon that I've seen before include "All gone (anag.)" , "Large old sailing vessel" , "Ship of the line" , "Old Spanish war-ship" , "Historical warship with three or more masts" .)
