Imo it all depends on what works for you. Jurg Whitehouse, as you know, rows every day but I have to have at least one day of total rest and probably two days off the erg, but that is just what works for me.
Give it a try and see how you feel / results it produces. I think I have made progress with doing more metres recently though.

Re: Double Training Sessions?
I've gone straight into double sessions during this lockdown period to get in some good mileage as a relative noob. It has let me do that and I can recover pretty well between workouts, but I'm finding the quality of the morning sessions isn't great. Might retain a couple of the double-days just for UT2 but switch others to single, 2x10km sessions. Lower mileage but time spent in a useful training zone might not be too far different that way, since the first couple of km in each session presumably aren't good for much.
