Background information (photo of punting on the river)

A punt is a long boat with a flat bottom. You move the boat along by standing at one end and pushing a long pole against the bottom of the river.

Punts were developed in Medieval times to provide stable craft which could be used in areas of water too shallow for rowing conventional craft.

Punting along the River Cam is one of the traditional delights of visiting Cambridge, and something that should be tried - at least once - by everyone!
