Title: Oar length ?
Post by: wildweeds on September 13, 2016, 04:18:11 PM

So the sled I bought last year came with 9 foot sawyer oars, boat has a 90 inch beam and the oars are flat out to short to do much good, oar outfit claims 10 to 11 foot oars for that beam. There's a great set in the classifieds here but they are 10 footers. Will they be long enough? And GO! Thanks in advance.

Yes 10's will be fine - the guys run 9.5' and 10's on the sleds I build - with 96" beams

10' or 11' should be good to go.
