Lots of money taken from you, and aboard ship (9)
I believe the answer is:
thousands
'lots of money' is the definition.
(eg thousands of pounds)
'you and aboard ship' is the wordplay.
'you' becomes 'thou' (I've seen this before).
'aboard' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'ship' becomes 'SS' (prefix in ship names eg SS Great Britain).
'and' inserted inside 'ss' is 'sands'.
'thou'+'sands'='THOUSANDS'
'taken from' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for thousands that I've seen before include "1000s" , "a lot" , "Dan shouts out at many hundreds" , "large sum?" , "Crowds" .)
