I believe the answer is:
swallow-dives
'enters the water straight-armed' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot judge whether it can be defined by this definition.
'possibly said vows well' is the wordplay.
'possibly' indicates an anagram.
'said'+'vows'+'well'='saidvowswell'
'saidvowswell' is an anagram of 'SWALLOW-DIVES'.
'and' is the link.
