Vessels requiring knotted ropes at bow (5,5)
I believe the answer is:
power boats
'vessels' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot tell whether it can be defined by this definition.
'knotted ropes at bow' is the wordplay.
'knotted' indicates an anagram.
'ropes'+'at'+'bow'='ropesatbow'
'ropesatbow' with letters rearranged gives 'POWER BOATS'.
'requiring' is the link.
