'transport of delight?' is the definition.
'pleasure boat' can be an answer for 'transport' (pleasure boat is a kind of transport). I'm not certain of the 'of delight?' bit.

'transport of delight?' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'transport' could be 'boat' (boat is a kind of transport) and 'boat' is found in the answer.
'delight?' could be 'pleasure' (synonyms) and 'pleasure' is found in the answer.
No letters remain.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
