Women from tip to tail (or why you don't race with a replacement steersperson)

Women's boats at the international level must have all women crew members. Some teams figured this didn't apply to the steersperson, and they had a difficult choice to make when they arrived in Penang. Their options were to (a) not race in competition or (b) find a replacement woman steersperson. Here is a clip of an unfortunate team that took option (b). Try not to be mesmerized by China's insanely mechanical stroke movement and watch the far lanes around the 0:30 mark.
