The fastest row women’s coxless pairs is 6 minutes 47.41 seconds, achieved by Grace Prendergast and Kerri Gowler (both New Zealand) at the 2020 Olympic Games Regatta in Tokyo, Japan, on 28 July 2021.

This was one of six world-best times set on the same day at Sea Forest Waterway. Prendergast and Gowler set their record time in the semi-final of the women’s coxless pairs and went on to take gold in the final. World Rowing acknowledges "world best" times rather than world records, owing to fluctuating environmental factors involved in outdoor rowing. All times cover 2,000 m races.
