Here's another bonus meta for you! When
@Cap'n Rick won the most recent Crosshare midi crossword contest and chose "The Sea" as the theme for the new contest I thought I should submit an entry both in homage to him as a meta constructor and also to see if I could cram a meta into an 11x11 grid. The answer to the meta is a type of boat.

That was fun Ben, I was confused at first but I am glad to say the SS Befuddled was able to sail across the gap. I was killed trying to tie it to another "nautical term", a Midshipman from the USNA, also known as a Midi, but in the end it wouldn't hold water.
