In rowing, a two-man shell, each with two oars or sculls. Each rower sits on a sliding seat and propels the shell down a 2000m course in a bit over six minutes at the Olympic level. Brad Lewis and Paul Enquist were the most recent US gold medal in rowing, at the Los Angeles Games in the double sculls.
Other rowing events include the eight, four, and pair oared sweeps, and the quad and single sculls.
