Survival skills of husband trapped between vehicle and boat (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bushcraft

'survival skills' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'husband trapped between vehicle and boat' is the wordplay.
'husband' becomes 'h' (abbreviation).
'trapped between' is an insertion indicator.
'vehicle' becomes 'bus' (public transport vehicle).
'and' says to put letters next to each other.
'boat' becomes 'craft' (boat is a type of craft).
'bus'+'craft'='buscraft'
'h' inserted within 'buscraft' is 'BUSHCRAFT'.

'of' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for bushcraft that I've seen before include "survival skills" , "What's needed to travel in the wild" , "Backwoodsman uses this" , "Skill at living in wild country" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
