Prepare to put out with the turn of the tide (4)
I believe the answer is:
edit
'prepare' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'put out with the turn of the tide' is the wordplay.
'tide' can be anagrammed to 'EDIT'.
But, I'm not sure how the anagram is indicated.
'to' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for edit that I've seen before include "Emend" , "Blue-pencil" , "Be in charge of (newspaper)" , "Amend and correct" , "Make alterations (in text)" .)
