Vessels for turbulent oceans? (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

canoes

'vessels' is the definition.
(canoe is a kind of vessel)

'turbulent oceans?' is the wordplay.
'turbulent' is an anagram indicator.
'oceans' with letters rearranged gives 'CANOES'.

'for' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for canoes that I've seen before include "Craft" , "Small boats found in strange oceans" , "Simple boats" , "Small light boats" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
