See about getting in the water (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

seine

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'water' is the definition.
(Seine is an example)

'see about getting' is the wordplay.
'about' is an insertion indicator.
'getting' becomes 'in' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'see' going around 'in' is 'SEINE'.

'in the' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for seine that I've seen before include "Second longest river in France" , "French river -- type of fishing net" , "Paris river" , "Parisian river" , "Paris's river" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
