Last one!

27 across: Shoot old girl in boat's bar (6)

Have T?L?E?

Believe answer is Tiller (Shoot is another word for tiller.) If I'm right, why?

Many thanks in advance.

Shoot old girl in boat's bar - looks like a triple definition- shoot (as you said, didn't know that) , old girl (dancing troupe from 50s and 60s Tiller Girls) and boat's bar (tiller is a bar inserted in the helm for steering.

Thanks for the explanations.

Yes, I do remember the Tiller girls. Feel, although my instinct was correct with the answer, the clue is, how should I say, a little hazy.
