not sure what you mean by this, but if you mean the Olympics, they race on a 2000 meter course, the world standard. i know in the u.s. scholastic teams (high schools and some colleges) race on a 1500 meter race course. that's about as short as it gets though
win the race

A rowing team typically consists of either four or eight rowers, depending on the specific event or race.
Rowing events are called regattas. A regatta is also known as a 'race day'. It consists of an entire schedule of individual races between teams.
Rowing is 'played' by racing boats agaisnt each other. In some races called "head races" the boats are set off one after the other and the boat that wins is the boat with the fastest time in a category. In regattas, the boats are raced in lanes and so it is whoever finishes the race first. There are also indoor rowing competitions where lots of people gather and compete on rowing machines (ergos) and depending on what their race is the winner is whoever got the greatest distance or the fastest time. There are many differnet categories for age, gender, weight and type of boat so each race is fair.
Rowing is a team race. The boat contains a team that must work together to win the race for the entire team.
the starter names each crew from lane one to six, then says attention! and a buzzer starts the race
im pretty sure you can if you mod it and race it in small 4 strokes
