  • Sometimes the best way to win a sailing race is to drop anchor.
    • Imagine in a race trying to navigate a narrow channel with the tide coming in and strong headwinds.
    • Everyone is fighting against the tide and wind but keeps getting pushed back.
    • A better option is to drop anchor and wait for the conditions to improve.
