Joined Crew Team: Coxswain HELP!

[cessna152]

I just joined the crew team here at college as a coxswain since my friend is on the team. Anyone else a coxswain? I'm totally green at this and any tips would be greatly aprreciated. I just steered the boat for the first time today. It was lots of fun.

Don;t you get to beat the drums and hit the other guys with swords and stuff?

I heard you get those cool pointy hats too.
