2012-03-20A shopper asked: What lenth oar will be best for a 14 ft row boat?
+Expand Answers
2012-03-23CHARLES BAIER LADY'S ISLAND MARINA: The answer to your question will depend on several things, one of which is stowage on the boat. Your rowing technique and the design of the boat is also a factor. There is really no right answer. But you might try this, measure the distance between the oarlocks, divide by 2, then add 2 inches. The adding 2 inches can be skipped if you are not an overlap technique rower. Take this number, multply by 25, divide by 7, and that's your approximate length in inches. Some lengths will be comfortable for you but not for others. I hope this helps. Chuck
2012-03-23CARL SCHULTZ: The oar size is a simples calculation but I have always liked longer oars. Before you buy try a friends if you can. Short oars are hard to make any good way. If you row full time you will enjoy the longer oar. If you only use them for back up, then get ones that fit into a place where they wont be in your way. A long time ago I had the pleasure of meeting Bob Lincoln. I asked the same question that you are asking. He added extended oar locks to his Rangley Lake boat and had 7 1/2 foot oars. He would row in water with a chop and make really good speed even without a sliding seat. His boat was 14 feet long. My pick for your boat would be 7 foot!
2012-03-24HARLEY D SEAMAN: A common formula involves the boats beam at the oarlocks. The beam in feet divided by 2 x 25 the answer divided by 7. A 14 ft boat would round this up to the nearest 6 inch length.
A boat with a 48 inch beam, 14 ft length:
2 x 25 = 50
50 / 7 =7.14 ft
round up to 7 ft 6 in
A 10 ft or under boat with the same beam would round down to 7 ft
