Dans les épreuves d’aviron, il y a deux types d’embarcation : l'«aviron simple» ou «aviron de pointe»(une seule rame par rameur) ;l'«aviron double» ou «aviron de couple»(deux rames par rameur). Certaines sources voudraient que les athlètes de ce sport soient des «canotier(s), canotières(s) »plutôt que des «rameur(s), rameuse(s) ».
