oared
Propelled by sweeps
Oared describes a boat or vessel equipped with oars: an eight-oared racing shell.
The word appears almost exclusively in compound forms specifying the number of oars or rowers: a four-oared skiff, single-oared.
It distinguishes rowing craft from those powered by sail, motor, or paddle.
