anchored verb
Hold; To hold fast by or as if by an anchor
For an observer on the pool deck, watching an efficient swimmer (Olympic or otherwise), the hand exits the water at about the same place it goes in.

That's where it is metaphoric:
"...For an observer on the pool deck, watching an efficient swimmer (Olympic or otherwise), the hand exits the water at about the same place it goes in..."
because:
for the swimmer (not for the passive observer but for the active swimmer) there is no holding anchor-like in order to have the hand exiting "...the water at about the same place it goes in..." but there is pulling the body thru water or crawling.
