Paddles/oars...
 

Hey, do any of you guys carry paddles/oars on your boats? I would imagine the guys with Mercs definitely would. Just kidding boys... ;D ;D ;D

But really, if you do have paddles/oars, what kind do you have, what would you recommend, and where would you recommend to buy?

NC requires us to have them

Re: Paddles/oars...
 

Yeah, definitely have one ... I found a long-handled, lightweight alum/plastic ... with boats, ya just never know ;) ...

No paddle for me, but two anchors. I only boat in tidal water. Ever try paddling a V?

Hammer, don't answer that ;)

Re: Paddles/oars...
 

MA requires it, I have never used it, But I have a Aluminum one, got sick of replacing the wood ones when they rotted.

They have them at any boat store, walmart what ever. They even have telescoping ones with a boat hook on one end.

i use mine to center the boat on the trailer when loading on the ramp sides as someone pulls us out.

A lady friend of ours recently borrowed mine to stir her pickles ... I swear.

I have one, and yes I have tried paddling my V. It don't paddle worth a dam either, trust me.
