Hey Cat! So I was a rower and now I’m a coxswain. I’ve only done it for a like 6-8ish full practices. I know my lines but there is this one coxswain that when taking the inside line, won’t go “full inside” if that makes senses. She never adjusts her line for other boats (and the coach doesn’t say anything. Maybe she is in the right I honestly don’t know!!) If I don’t go left of her, our boats will collide, but when I go left I get yelled at by my coach for going too far out. Any tips/ advice. We row on a river/lake so there are quite a number of turns and big rocks on our course. Thanks so much for your help!!!
Hey I’m not cat but I have coxed for 6 seasons and my best advice would just be to ask your coach what they prefer, every coach thinks differently and if you ask then they know that your trying💜
