    4. naut.; the ships of the ancients were divided into ‘rooms,’ one for each pair of oars; each room consisted of two ‘half-rooms’ (hálf-rými), viz. one for each oar, thus a ship of thirty ‘rooms’ had sixty oars, see Vidal.

The interesting passage in Fms. ix. 33 (ch. 14) is an instance of ships with double rows of oars; Knútr inn ríki hafði skip furðu-liga stór, hann hafði sjálfr dreka þann er svá var mikill, at sextugr var at ruma tali … Hákon hafði annan dreka, var sá fertugr at rúma tali, Ó. H. 161: the Hálfd. Eyst. S. ch. 26 (of a ship, tirætt at rúma tali) is a mere fable: only a few of the oar-rooms are known by special names, e. g. stafn-rúm, the two fyrir-rúm (eptra ok fremra), the two austr-rúm (one fore and one aft, or even four, cp. senn jósu vér í fjórum rúmum, Fms, vi, in a verse), the klofa-rúm, krappa-rúm, q. v.; betra er autt rúm en ílla skipað, better an empty seat than an ill-filled one, cp.
