Congrats on your new bote. This week I was away on vacation and was
thinking of your post. I keep thinking of my bote...I think that with some
real powerful oars you will see some serious flex in your botel. Were that
my bote, I would probably think of some retrofit oar-locks. I guess that I
row for the joy of it, not to get anywhere in a hurry. That's my $0.02
worth, feel free to ignore me...my wife does. :-)

Glenn.

P.S. Enjoy your bote.

I'm taking delivery of my bote tomorrow. If I'm successful, I'll have
converted it to sculling (10' carbon fiber oars with shovel scoop
ends) sometime in the next few days (stay tuned for pictures in the
gallery). Those oars are worth half what the boat is...


How do any of you who have such an issue secure your oars from theft?

Thanks.

You don't say whether you own a yacht. There are lots of places on a yacht
you can hide a pair of sculling oars in. We usually have more difficulty
finding ours than hiding them!
