Incomplete sauce boat (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ketch

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

This clue might be a double definition.

'incomplete sauce' is the first definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I cannot understand how one could define the other.

'boat' is the second definition.
(ketch is a kind of sailing vessel)

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for ketch that I've seen before include "Two-masted sailing vessel" , "Two-masted sailing ship" , "Jack" , "Two-masted sailing boat" , "Small sailing vessel with two masts" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail and The Irish News.
