# M?en, a Breton saint
# Meen (film), an Indian film

According to the way you have posted it, it looks like maybe it could mean one of the above.

Swamp; however can easily be found in the dictionary, meen is not in Webster.

Basically that your boat is full of water, but it hasn't sunk to the bottom. Or you could go with the above answers.

Re: short question

Yea, there are a lot of terms with multiple meanings, & some people like teasing a bit. - Seeing as your question has been answered properly 3 times now, how about learning what broach, pitchpole, & pooped mean. All of these can leave you swamped. (seriously)
