Where boat stops, beastly noise is coming with anger (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

moorage

'where boat stops' is the definition.

'beastly noise is coming with anger' is the wordplay.
'beastly noise' becomes 'moo'.
'is coming with' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'anger' becomes 'rage' (rage is a kind of anger).
'moo'+'rage'='MOORAGE'

(Other definitions for moorage that I've seen before include "Charge for tying up a ship" , "Place for a ship to make fast" , "Place to fasten" , "Making fast" , "Securing of craft" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
