Rower hitting front of yacht sinks here, maybe (8)
I believe the answer is:
scullery
'sinks here maybe' is the definition.
(a scullery might contain kitchen sinks)
'rower hitting front of yacht' is the wordplay.
'rower' becomes 'sculler' (sculler is a kind of rower).
'hitting' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other) (hit can mean to touch on or border).
'front of' suggests taking the first letters.
The initial letter of 'yacht' is 'y'.
'sculler'+'y'='SCULLERY'
(Other definitions for scullery that I've seen before include "Small room next to the kitchen" , "Room for preparatory kitchen work, washing up etc" , "part of kitchen" , "Washing-up room" , "Room for non-cooking kitchen work" .)
