Raw Rube? Aren't you the guy that once started that the proper length
of oars were "ones that fitted inside one's boat"?


Dinghy - not 'boat'. The oars should not be longer than the rowing dinghy
itself. When you ship your dinghy oars you don't want them protruding either
fore or aft. That's just plain common sense. It they protrude past bow or
transom, it is likely they will be knocked adrift at crowded dinghy docks
and you might well find yourself trying to row out to the mother ship using
pieces of driftwood found along the shoreline.


But perhaps you are a thief? Didn't you once give us detailed
instructions on how to steal from Walmart?



Hardly. It was K-Mart, if memeory serves. But, then again, if I'm becoming
as senile as you, I might have mis-remembered. lol
