Talk of going ashore? (3)

I believe the answer is:

gas

'talk' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'of going ashore?' is the wordplay.
'of' indicates a hidden word.
'GAS' is hidden within 'going ashore'.

(Other definitions for gas that I've seen before include "Piped fuel" , "chew the fat" , "Domestic fuel" , "Fuel; idle talk" , "See 2" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
