Hi,

I feel like I'm missing something obvious but I'm stuck on this one (for context a hooker is a type of local boat and a small one is a Gleoiteog or Púcán)

45dn . For example, Lego toy confused with young head missing a small hooker. 8. ??E??E??

It might be a coincidence, but if you anagram/"confused" EG (for example) + LEGO + TO(y - young head missing) you can get all the letters in "gleoiteog" with the exception of the "i" - is there maybe an alternative spelling without the "i"?

Okay, I just found this online:-

"An avid sailor, he owns a traditional Claddagh hooker, known as a gleoteog"

Plus this fits your letter pattern.
