Sailing challenge (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

headwind

(Other definitions for headwind that I've seen before include "Current of air blowing into the bow of ship" , "It blows straight into your face" , "opposing force" , "Stiff breeze blowing directly in front" , "Contrary breeze" .)

I've seen this clue in the King Feature Syndicate.
