A completed pair of oars for my Argie 10 row/sail/motor dinghy. The sleeve is made of red webbing tape, and the "button" is a Turk's Head made in soft rope. Once again, the webbing tape is not traditional at all, but it should do the job of protecting the oar loom from chafing on the rowlock. The oars are likely to see hard work, because they will mostly be used by amateurs, and therefor the flat blade with a blunt end is best. Performance absolutely not guaranteed.
