I was going to add "pulling away from the pin at the end of the stroke", but you included it in the bonus-reel. There is also the possibility of people sliding forward too quickly and sitting at the catch momentarily, shifting their weight and causing the boat to fall. But I am curious why Starboard and Port is not used on this side of the Pond. Instead it is Stroke-side and Bow-side. Of course Stroke and Bow can be on either side and in Italian Rigged boats they are on the same side. But Stroke-side remains conventionally on Port side. It would be interesting to know where this difference arose from.
hi! i’m wondering how do you know if someone in your boat should change their spacers? is there anything to look out for? thanks, this video was very helpful!
Hello! You could know if someone should change there spacers, by when they row if the oar goes above their chest or below. But if you really want to be sure. Have that one person go to the finish and square their blade. You should then know if they need to. :)
