Answer:  LOST IT

(Ah!  Good help is so hard to find!  A pun-ch line the original Jumble creators may not have thought of.  There were no new clue words today, however all of the jumbles did come up as new.  Tough hiding the answer in a six letter answer letter layout.  The cartoon is very entertaining, but I’m having trouble identifying whatever is floating on the horizon.  It’s definitely NOT the classic sinking sailboat.  It’s too basic to be the pirate ship.  Maybe their dinghy floated away?  Maybe Jeff will explain.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
