Crossword Genius

Woman in yacht at sea (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cynthia

'woman' is the definition.

'in yacht at sea' is the wordplay.
'at sea' is an anagram indicator.
'in'+'yacht'='inyacht'
'inyacht' with letters rearranged gives 'CYNTHIA'.

(Other definitions for cynthia that I've seen before include "Girl's name" , "Girl" , "Woman" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
