🔍 Key Concepts

• Steering oar function and location in the boat • How lifeboat oars are named based on their job (steering vs. rowing) • Traditional small-boat terminology for a large oar used for steering

💭 Think About

• Which term sounds like it might describe an oar primarily used to control the direction of the boat rather than provide main propulsion? • Think about which word you might hear in connection with the person who sets the rowing rhythm or who controls the boat’s heading. • Eliminate any choices that you recognize as being related to fittings, pieces of line, or spars rather than oars.

✅ Before You Answer

• Make sure the term you choose is actually associated with lifeboats or pulling boats, not just sailing gear in general. • Ask yourself: Is this name tied to steering or timing during rowing? • Verify that the option you pick is commonly used in USCG lifeboat and survival craft terminology.
