Steveston Marine & Hardware has Oars for you! Oars are specifically used for rowing and attached to the boat via oarlocks. It is a great way to propel your boat and has been used for thousands of years. Caviness and Seachoice are some of the best options when it comes to varnished oars, and range in length from 5 feet all the way up to 8 feet. Looking for paddles? Check out this section, but also take a look at our full paddle section here. Don't know what size oars you need? Take the distance between your oarlock sockets (in feet), divide it by 2, multiply it by 3 and add 6". For example, if the distance between your oarlocks is 5 feet, you should have 8-foot oars ((5ft / 2) * 3) + 6 inches. Contact us if you have any questions about finding the right oar for your boat.
