Sport available on large rescue vessel (4,6)
I believe the answer is:
lark around
'sport' is the definition.
(both can mean to play or mess about)
'available on large rescue vessel' is the wordplay.
'available' becomes 'around' (around can mean unoccupied or available).
'on' says to put letters next to each other.
'large' becomes 'l'.
'rescue vessel' becomes 'ark' (rescue ship in the Bible).
'l'+'ark'='lark'
'around' put after 'lark' is 'LARK AROUND'.
