The notion of a set is the most fundamental in Mathematics. Careless use of sets leads to contradictions the most famous of which was discovered by Bertrand Russell. Without going into details, sets are collections of elements that share some property P - the characteristic property of a set. The following notation is quite common: {x: P(x)} is read "the set of all x that have the property P". In view of the possibility of paradoxes, it must be remarked that not every possible property P defines a set.

(set of a boat) The definition that I think comes closest to what rowers mean by the set of a boat is `form or carriage of the body or of its parts'. In this case the `body' consists of the shell and the rowers. Items that can affect the set of the boat are the rower's posture, hand levels, rigging (the favorite culprit ... especially with the more advanced rowers), timing at the catch and release, and outside conditions such as the wind. It is not unusual for rowers within a shell not to agree on what needs to be done to establish a `good' set, i.e. a level, stable shell that will provide the basis for that symphony of motion.
