Crossword Genius

Skills on the vessels (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

crafts

This clue is a double definition.

'skills' is the first definition.
(I know this)

'the vessels' is the second definition.
('craft' can be a synonym of 'vessel')

'on' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for crafts that I've seen before include "Hand-made objects" , "Skilled trades" , "Boats; skills" , "Builds" , "Occupations requiring special skills" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
