For a an 8 boat you need 8 rowers + 1 coxswain. For a 4 boat you need 4 rowers and 1 coxswain. If you skull (use 2 oars instead of 1) then you can row a single, a two or a four. Those boats do not need a coxswain because the bow seat rower is in charge of stearing the boat.

∙ 14y agoIt depends how you define team, if you define team as one crew, which i am going to assume, then it goes a little like this Sculling - where each person holds two oars - Single - one person. Double - two people. Quad - Four people + coxswain. Sweep - where each person holds one oar - Pair - two people. Four - Four people + coxswain. Eight - Eight people + coxswain

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
