Can you float down the rivers?

USDA Forest Service, Pike & San Isabel National Forests,...
There are few areas of the South Platte River that are good floats in our district due to the shallow river depth and/or rapids and there are several areas along the river that are privately owned. By Colorado law, these property owners can restrict access the the portion of the river than runs through their property. For those desiring to float the river it is important that they check the depth and current of the river in the area they choose and be aware of any property restrictions.

What is rowing?

TRRA:
Rowing is the act of propelling a boat through the water with the use of oars. In a rowing shell the rower sits on a seat that moves both forward and backward. This enables the rower to bend and straighten his or her legs increasing the length of each row or “stroke” as we say. This makes the boat much more effective and faster than a regular rowboat. The rower basically rows using the oars to push the water in front of them causing them to go backwards.

What about sculling vs rowing with two oars?

Atom Voyages | Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
In my experience the standard Western sculling oar, which is usually just a single normal rowing oar that is twisted in a figure-eight motion off the transom, is noticeably less efficient than the Chinese yuloh (sculling oar). I believe a yuloh is more efficient for a long haul in calm waters (if there are any waves the yuloh is difficult to keep on its pin and socket) and is the only option for rowing in confined harbors.

What is the sport of rowing?

Frequently Asked Questions
The term “boat” refers to a team. Though E. O. Smith has novice boats of eight and Varsity boats of four, it can be eight, four, two, or even a single rower. In addition, most boats have a coxswain (pronounced “cox-n”), the on-board coach who steers the boat (being the only one in the boat who faces forward), and communicates to the rowers through an on-board PA system (the “cox box”) to call out directions and set the pace of the rowers.

What's the difference between a rowing machine and a real sculler?

Frequently Asked Questions at Little River Marine
A quality rowing machine provides the same exercise as a rowing shell. The difference is largely that rowing a shell is outdoors and on the water. Rowing a real sculler doesn't feel like exercise, it feels like you're boating and having fun. For many people this is the difference between loving to exercise and boating it!
