There may be other descriptions.

sculling is when the athlete uses 2 oars and rowing only one oar per athlete

Answer 3

Sculling uses 2 oars, Rowing only 1.

Answer 4

So you "scull" a rowboat (dinghy). Odd, that.

And I suppose you pole a punt.

What would you do in a coracle? One orr. Do you row it or scull it?
