Rowing Club

Enough of history... on Saturday, I was with the rowing club on the river Shannon, going up and down the stream picking precious new vocabulary from our cox who was shouting his orders at us: "... even pressure one, hold the water seven, easy all ..." These and many more led me to create a new excel spreadsheet dedicated to this specific area of rowing terminology. Here's a sample:

to hold the water
to square the oar
to feather the water
bow side / stroke side
