coxes
Shell commanders, plural
Coxes is the plural of cox, short for coxswain—the person who steers a rowing boat and directs the crew's rhythm and strategy.
In competitive rowing, the cox sits at the stern facing the rowers, calling out commands and stroke rates: The coxes shouted instructions as the boats approached the finish line.
