The boat is levered forward by the oars pivoting against the forward thole pins, but there is ALSO a 2nd turning point about 50cm from the tip of the blade which moves up and down the blade/shaft during the stroke cycle as obviously the boat is moving forward [...]]]></description>

To decide your overall oar length you need to agree first your outboard length (in conjunction with blade area and shape – see later), then your inboard length. OUTBOARD The outboard length of the oar is measured from the blade tip to the centre of the sleeve. This length sets your “gearing” in conjunction with the arc through which you row, and with fixed thole pins, there [...]]]></description>
