Dear Ed:

I have rowed many boats in some tough conditions as only 150 mm waves on a lake can be tough.

The human being doing the rowing is doing all the work and say you are sitting in the stern sheets. It is only fair to the oar human driver to give them directions relative to their left and right. You are not hot and sweaty.

It also means that if you say pull left the boat will head to port or your left. So everyone wins.

A win win row,
win win row

etc..
