Put out vessel for recovery (6)
I believe the answer is:
upturn
'for recovery' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
'put out vessel' is the wordplay.
'out' indicates an anagram (out can mean wrong or inaccurate).
'vessel' becomes 'urn' (urn is a type of container).
'put' with letters rearranged gives 'upt'.
'upt'+'urn'='UPTURN'
(Other definitions for upturn that I've seen before include "Improvement in business activity" , "Improving trend" , "economic improvement" , "Improvement in results" , "Improvement, better trend in business" .)
