Stroke
Bow side represent!
The person in the boat that instructs the members of a boat while rowing is called the coxswain (if that's your question).
The smallest rowing sweep boat (one oar per person) is a pair with 2 people, one person rowing each side. The smallest rowing sculling boat (2 oars per person) is a single, one person rowing both sides. Source: I am a rower B)
The rowing blade is at the end the oar, and is the part of the oar that goes into the water to propel the boat forward after you take a stroke. The blade is usually shaped like a square.
the proper answer is an 8.or if these rowers are using two blades (sculling) it is called an octuplate
a crew, a boat, a lineup, a rowing team are all commonly used by athletes in the sport. I'm a 4 year rower and we call it just simply "crew" and when we refer to the people in our boat we call it "our boat". A lineup is the allotmant of people from bow to stroke seat.
stop rowing
In order to back a rowing boat, the rowers twist the oar handle 180 degrees turning the blade (end of the oar) around backwards. Then the rowing stroke is done in reverse. The blade is placed in the water toward the stern, then the rower pushes (rather than pulls) the oar handle away from their chest sending the blade through the water toward the bow of the boat. As long as each rower that is "backing" is paired with another rower that holds an oar on the opposite side of the boat who is also backing, this motion will "back" the boat down, rather than send it forward.
The most people in a rowing boat is 8 not including the cox.
canoe and rowing boat
You sit in a row boat with someone and about halfway into the trip you hang them off the side of the boat by their underpants with an oar in their hands and you make them row the boat.
