A Pontoon is a floating platform usually provided at a tidal berth for ships. Also Marinas usually have pontoons for boats to moor at.

Yes, rowing movements do work the deltoids, mainly the rear and lateral deltoids.

Rowing is most definitely not easy unlike the song "row, row, row your boat gently down the stream", it is one of the top intense training sports out there next to cross-country skiing, however the rewards and benefits balance out. Do not join this sport unless your ready for a challenge (hate to be cheesy, but i speak from experience). If you are ready, though, it is one of the greatest sports out there, filled with a lifetime of experiences.

Rowers

In the sport of rowing, you can have both team and individual events.

The rowing blade is at the end the oar, and is the part of the oar that goes into the water to propel the boat forward after you take a stroke. The blade is usually shaped like a square.

Coxswains yell all sorts of things. Our main job is to 1) motivate and 2) steer and 3) keep the rowers in rhythm.

To motivate, for example, during a race, I would say, "LET'S GO! Come on, drive with those legs! Push it out. Break down that wall, ladies, break down that wall. You have worked TOO hard to give this up. Every stroke you pulled, every pound you lifted, every mile you ran, all of it has led up to this. This is your time. OWN IT!" And then I would probably call out a Power Ten. To do that, I have found it helpful to yell out phrases and/or rowers names in between the numbers. Also make sure to have an intensity to your voice, or the rowers won't take you seriously. "Power Ten in two, that's one, and two. Here we go...ONE! C'mon, Mikaela, TWO! Let's go THREE. Nice work, FOUR! Explode from those legs, FIVE! Give me more, SIX! I want GOLD...SEVEN! Keep it up - EIGHT! Sally! NINE! Last one, TEN!"

To steer, one would say, "Ports/Starboards, give power up" and then after your course is straight "Row even".

And then to keep everyone in rhythm and having proper technique, I would say, "2 seat, your oar is skimming the water. Don't let me hear your blade slapping!" "Starboards, I need you to follow 7 seat. She is your STROKE for a reason. Get it together." Make sure to always tell them when they're doing it right. Let them know you appreciate it. "Let's get this boat set - I want your blades 2 inches off the water - no more, no less. If we all compromise, we'll be flying in no time. Good, thank you, three seat. Oops! Ports, you're a little low. Bow four, back in time with us...there we go. Perfect."

eight

The large number in the center is the split. It tells you how hard you are pulling by calculating how long it would take you to row 500 meters. The lower the number the better. (ex. 1:49) The number in the top right corner is how many strokes you take per minute. (ex. 25)

focus on your legs, hamstrings quods etc. rowing is really an all body sport. all your muscles are important, work your legs your abs your arms your shoulder and lower back (this is where most rowers get injuries) and your gluts

Sure, there's no problem 'provided' that the rails, or guides, that the pontoons sit on are correctly positioned. The length of the trailer shouldn't have any affect on its ability to carry a smaller boat if its pontoons fit properly.

The parents of Evers Swindell are John Swindell and Patricia Swindell. They have supported their sons, Evers and his brother, in their athletic pursuits. The Swindell family is known for their close-knit relationship and encouragement in sports.
