Nautical hail (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ahoy

'nautical hail' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for ahoy that I've seen before include "Seafarer's call" , "Mariner's challenge" , "Call for ship's attention" , "Nautical shout" , "Hullo, sailor!" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian and The Independent.
