🔍 Key Concepts

• Standard lifeboat commands used during rowing, especially those that stop rowing or change the stroke • The typical sequence of movements for an oar: drive (stroke), recovery (feathering/coming forward), and stowing • Difference between holding water (slowing the boat) and stopping rowing completely

💭 Think About

• Think about what a coxswain or steersman wants the crew to do when they no longer need the boat to be propelled but may still need control for the next command. • Which option describes not just pausing the stroke, but actually ending the act of rowing and preparing the oar for another evolution or command? • Which actions would still leave the oar in the water affecting the boat’s movement, versus actions that clear the oar and secure it?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which choice describes finishing the last stroke before changing what you do with the oar. • Check which option results in your oar no longer in the water and not driving the boat. • Eliminate any options that describe a position used for holding water or backing rather than stopping rowing.
