Privateer recalling Capri as rocky in part (7)
I believe the answer is:
corsair
'privateer' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'recalling capri as rocky in part' is the wordplay.
'recalling' is a reversal indicator.
'in part' indicates a hidden word.
'riasroc' is hidden in the letters of 'capri as rocky'.
'riasroc' written backwards gives 'CORSAIR'.
(Other definitions for corsair that I've seen before include "Marauder" , "Pirate (archaic)" , "Main villain" , "A swift pirate ship" , "Privateer" .)
