A rowboat is a small, narrow watercraft designed for manual propulsion using oars. It typically accommodates one or more rowers who sit facing backward and use their oars to propel the boat through the water. The rowboat's design allows for efficient maneuverability in calm waters, making it suitable for recreational activities such as fishing, leisurely rowing, or exploring small bodies of water like lakes or ponds. Its simplicity and ease of use make it an accessible option for individuals looking to enjoy a peaceful and intimate experience on the water.
