The person on a rowing ship who beat the drum is commonly referred to as the "drummer" or "drum leader." Their role was to provide rhythmic guidance to the crew, helping to synchronize their rowing efforts. In some historical contexts, this position may also be called the "coxswain," although the coxswain typically has broader responsibilities related to steering and commanding the vessel.
