These sound like what I put on some oars about 15 yr ago, and my
recollection is that the directions said to roll them up, like a doughnut
and then roll them on the oar, making sure it is done the right direction.
One would need to work the doughnut in the right spot before unrolling it.

Does anyone know what to do to oar rubbers to get them onto an oar?
I've got this lovely, very practical full ring stainless rowlocks that
I want to use, but I'm going a bit spare trying to get the oar rubbers
on. I've searched everywhere, does anyone know the secret?

Thanks,
Robin
