May sound kinda stupid but I use the one at my local gym and I have a tough time.
My left knee is junk so I can't really row with my legs going straight up and down, I have to go a little bow legged and if I tried to keep my legs together it would crush my balls. Is there any settings where you can put your legs shoulder width or am I stuck going bow legged?

You could try use without shoes and rotate your feet a little in the straps. Does smash your feet a bit though.

I use my Concept 2 rower as a clothes hanger... Well, for now anyway until I can get back into training...
Turn the resistance down and concentrate on keeping your knees together until you strengthen your inside quad. Or the other option is to point your toes in and heels out and that will concentrate the workout more on your inside quad muscles.
Another way you can test for the quad imbalance is doing a deep squat with your hands straight up over your head palms in and if your legs bow out while squatting you need to work on your inner quads.
