Someone not ready for the real world (the big sea -- they're restricted to the mud, not even ready for wading in the shallows). Used by some in the navy as a disparaging term for marines and coast guard. Used also in amateur radio for people whose broadcast is weak (and therefore come through muddy with too much noise and not enough signal).
