When eight row together with swing the boat becomes the ninth rower.
The hardest part of rowing properly: Eyes and Minds in The Boat!
Fitness - Focus - Form.
Follow the stroke - or be the stroke that the rest can follow.
The concentration of all seven behind the stroke should be so strong that you know by feel when that stroke has varied his style or rating without the cox announcing it.
Still loving the sport; still working on the focus.
Let the boat work - and not me!
