Raise (5)

Ross

'raise' is the definition.
(hoisting is a kind of raising)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for hoist that I've seen before include "Winch" , "piece of lifting gear" , "Lift up; device for this" , "Lifting tackle" , "One that could raise" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard, The New York Times, the Penny Press, The Star Tribune, The Sunday Times, The Telegraph, The Times, The Mirror, the LA Times, the Sydney Morning Herald and The Guardian.
