The members of a crew (rowing) team are called rowers. Individually each seat in the boat is given a number, counting from bow (front) to stern (rear) with the bow being one. Either "bow seat" or "one seat" will work for the bow rower, and similarly the sternmost rower is either "stroke seat" or 8 seat 4 seat or 2 seat (depending on the type of boat). The person steering the boat and giving commands (located in the stern of an 8 and either the bow or stern of a 4) is the coxswain or "cox".
A rower rowing with two oars oars (sculling) can be called a sculler, whereas a rower with only oen oar (sweeping) is just known as a rower.
Also, the sides of the boat are named, with the right side (facing forwards) being starboard and the left side being port. In Britain, Australia, and New Zealand, starboard is "bow side" and port is "stroke side", as this is how boats are typically (but not always) rigged.
