Airplanes deploy revers thrusters when landing which are basically just shaped metal shields that move into place behind the engines to provide reverse thrust and slow the plane.
But adding a fan on a sailboat is seen as stupid and doesn’t work.

A fan on a sailboat totally works. You just have to aim the airflow behind the boat and not at the sail. Like those swamp boats in Florida.
For those unfamiliar with swamp boats. They are designed with no under water propeller to get stuck on/murder swamp stuff. They can go pretty fast.
