A light racing boat with a single rower using two oars; or to row a boat using a scull.
Origin uncertain, possibly from Old Norse or Old English, related to 'skull' (an empty vessel). The rowing boat sense became established in the 1500s-1600s.
Sculling requires incredible balance and coordination—competitive scullers are among the most physically powerful athletes because they generate power while barely moving their body in the narrow boat!
