“Rowing is the propulsion of a boat by oars. The oarsman sits with his face to the stern of the boat, his feet planted flush against his ‘stretcher’ or footboard, and the handle of the oar in his hands, the loom of the oar resting in the rowlock, the ‘button’ being inside the thowl-pin. 3, positions of the wrists in feathering the oar."—(Charles Leonard-Stuart, 1911)
