@Betsy your clues aren’t helping.

 

[Betsy]

Romance novel? Those are steamy!

Good answer but no! At least you are thinking laterally!

I’m baffled ……

@Betsy your clues aren’t helping.

Well I'll have to give an easier clue then won't I?

UM .......

This helps to keep you warm at the beach. Maybe on a board?

Now THAT clue has just given it away!

 

[Qualcast&Flymo]

A wetsuit?

 

[Betsy]

Give the girl a peanut! Well done @Qualcast&Flymo. I told you that the clue would give it away.

 

[Betsy]

This thread will now take a short break for a week.

 

[Roselina]

Wow
I’d never have guessed ……

 

[Merab]

Maybe would have guessed that eventually - sometime next year probably

 

[weepweeps]

I was thinking something smaller.

I’ve seen so many boards and wetsuits this week.

And you didn't get the answer?!? Wonders will never cease!

I don't know how you got from 'little steamer' to a wetsuit though

 

[Betsy]

I don't know how you got from 'little steamer' to a wetsuit though

I thought you might ask that. I looked up Cryptic Clues for Wetsuit on Aunty Google. As you can see below a Steamer was the answer to the clue of Full Wetsuit. As this one was a shortie wetsuit I went for Little Steamer.
