View sound directors on the coast (8)
I believe the answer is:
seaboard
'coast' is the definition.
(I know that seaboard is a type of coast)
'view sound directors on' is the wordplay.
'view sound' becomes 'sea' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'directors' becomes 'board' (board of directors).
'on' says to put letters next to each other.
'sea'+'board'='SEABOARD'
'the' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for seaboard that I've seen before include "The coast or its outline" , "coastal area" , "The coastline" , "Coastal region" .)
