Secure, as a ship (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

moor

'secure as a ship' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for moor that I've seen before include "Heathery upland" , "Heath - a North African Muslim" , "Berth, tie up" , "'On Ilka - - baht'at'" , "Open expanse covered with heather and bracken" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday, The Washington Post Sunday, the Universal, the New York Times, the Family Time and The Washington Post.
