Small boat may be blown up by pilots (6)
'be blown up by pilots' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot judge whether this works.
'small boat' is the wordplay.
'small' becomes 'rubber' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).

'rubber'+'dinghy'='RUBBER DINGHY'
'may' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
