oarswoman
She propels boats
An oarswoman is a woman who rows a boat, especially one who rows competitively.
The term appears in contexts where the rower's sex is relevant—collegiate athletics, historical accounts of women's rowing, or when distinguishing from oarsmen: She was the lead oarswoman on the varsity crew.
