The coxswain/ˈkɒksən/ is the person in charge of a boat, particularly its navigation and steering. The etymology of the word gives a literal meaning of "boat servant" since it comes from cock, a cockboat or other small vessel kept aboard a ship, and swain, an Old English term derived from the Old Norse sveinn meaning boy or servant.
Rowing
In rowing, the coxswain sits in either the bow or the stern of the boat (depending on the type of boat) while verbally and physically controlling the boat's steering, speed, timing and fluidity. The primary duty of a coxswain is to ensure the safety of those in the boat. In a race setting, the coxswain is tasked with motivating the crew as well as steering as straight a course as possible to minimize the distance to the finish line. Coxswains are also responsible for knowing proper rowing technique and running drills to improve technique.
In a crew, the coxswain/ˈkɒksən/ (or simply the 'cox', or 'coxie') is the member who sits in the stern (except in bowloaders) facing the bow. The coxswain is responsible for steering the boat, and coordinating the power and rhythm of the rowers. In some capacities, the coxswain is responsible for implementing the training regiment prescribed by a team's coach during practice.
Role
The role of a coxswain in a crew is to:
Keep the boat and rowers safe at all times by properly steering the boat (according to the river or regatta rules and safety for the crew)
Be in command of the boat at all times
Coach the crew when the coach is not present
Provide motivation and encouragement to the crew
Provide feedback on the crew's performance both in and out of the races
Make any necessary tactical decisions
Organize and direct the crew at all times, including when putting the boat away etc.
Be responsible for the vessel; in the event of a collision, the coxswain is accountable under maritime law as 'Master of the vessel' (although the stroke may sometimes be the captain of the boat).
