The meaning of punt

[rob]

Punt
The indentation found in the base of a wine bottle. Punt depth is often thought to be related to wine quality, with better quality wines having a deeper punt.

also:
A punt is a flat-bottomed boat with a square-cut bow, designed for use in small rivers or other shallow water. Punting refers to boating in a punt. The punter generally propels the punt by pushing against the river bed with a pole.

urban dictionary, the part I can post;

http://punt.urbanup.com/4811730puntTo 'have a punt' means to bet prospectively on something that probably won't win.
"What so you think Shergar is coming in at Cheltenham?"

"Not really, but I'll have punt on that"

Looked easy to stand on a boat and push it with a big stick?
Lets just start with the 'standing on the boat' part - thats not even easy most times!

Let alone hold on to this massive stick and not let it drag you in the water after you push off / before you set it for another push?...

Lmao - i wouldnt have thought it was easy... But i would have tried, and probably ended up swimming too.. The locals woulda loved me, or atleast held their stomachs from laughing
