Maritime official to hide teacher (13)
I believe the answer is:
harbourmaster
'maritime official' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot tell whether it can be defined by this definition.
'hide teacher' is the wordplay.
'hide' becomes 'harbour' (as in harbouring a fugitive).
'teacher' becomes 'master' (I've seen this before).
'harbour'+'master'='HARBOURMASTER'
'to' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
