In the nineteenth century, "stamp and go" was the order to the men standing at the capstan bars on a sailing ship to step forward and begin pushing on the bars and walking around the capstan to hoist the anchor. A "stamp and go" chantey is a song or chant by the men at the capstan to set the rhythm. "Stamp and go" is also a name for Jamaican saltfish fritters.
