Rowing versus paddling, when to use an oar vs paddle... blade shape, weight and materials, performance and speed, and cost differences.

Painted Paddle // Paddle Gift // Canoe Paddle Oar Wall Art // Choose One Hand Painted Paddle ~ Montana Lake Collection ~ BT ~ A special customer asked me to use these bold colors for her Montana lake cabin - and we loved it! Each painted paddle is constructed of stacked laminated basswood, and sealed for durability. The lovely curved silhouette creates a beautiful canvas for the hand painted designs in this Montana Lake Collection of Forest, Red, Black, White, Orange & Yellow. Finished in Clear coat, Black Cherry with Clear Coat, or Dark Walnut with Clear coat. Two available lengths: 48” 36” Length may vary by up to a 1/4 inch. Choose your favorite design in notes. Hanging hardware is included, but not installed, as the paddles' use varies. Installation is very easy. Please understand that all Painted Paddles in my store are handmade, and handmade items, by nature, have imperfections.

Decorating your home with painted vintage (or not so vintage) oars and paddles is one of my FAVORITE ideas for coastal and nautical themed rooms. Have to show you 10 innovative room ideas that I have been collecting for inspiration! 1. An adorable lake cottage entry featured on the Lily Pad Cottage - complete with paddles used as wall decor to create a real lake shore feel and welcome guests to Kelly's home. (very cute blog - LillyPadCottage.com) 2. Colorful oars coordinate well with nautical style bedding and pillows. Fun, bright look for a kids' room. (sorry - not sure of the original source!) ...super cute life ring pillow! 3. An innovative handrail - this is such an awesome idea! Discovered at "This Old House", homeowners Sue and Burr McKeehan unearthed "found" vintage oars underneath new beach bungalow in Newport Beach, California and simply gave them an extra polish. Voila' - amazing new stair hand rail with a piece of their home's history preserved! 4. Create an unique way to display treasured family framed memories using two oars and hooks. Too cute! (so sorry - not sure of the original image source!) 5. How adorable is this kids' bathroom idea? So cute, and absolutely practical! Add a few hooks and pretty stripes to coordinate and you can create a kid-friendly place to hang towels, bathrobes and other fun bath time essentials (super whale in this pic!) Idea created by Pawleys Island Posh - click to see the rest of her adorable blog! 6. More hooks and paddles - this beach cottage entrance idea from Sarah at Abeachcottage.com. Welcome guests with a place to hang coats, bags, and beach towels too! Simple add of larger, sturdy steel hooks to hold heavier items. If you want to avoid rust, a constant coastal issue, I would use stainless steel. If you don't mind creating an even more "rustic" paddle look then any heavy duty hook ought to work. 7. Super cute idea for displaying your cottage house street address! Paint a vintage paddle (or a new one) in colors to coordinate with your front porch and add fun house numbers. Maybe even your beach home's name? This idea created at TheHappyHousie.com 8. Another great idea for oars from The Shabby Shak - painted oars with the year that you "moved in", and your name or your "house" name. (P.S. She has super fun beachy stuff on her etsy site!) 9. Outside Art! Sorry not sure of the source, but thought this was an innovative way to display rustic oars - just build a rack and hang them up. Think about a constant changing art display by trading the paddles around for different occasions or grouping colors together. Hmmm.... possibilities are endless for summer fun! 9. As "wall art" to highlight more beach art and bring an art wall gallery some cohesiveness. Pretty aqua room and oar from Breezy Designs, as featured on BeachBlissLiving.com. Her home is beach cottage pretty! 10. How about creating a one of a kind idea with just a part of the paddle? Such a fun idea at Coastal Living Magazine in their 2011 Ultimate Beach House Tour home in Norfolk, Virginia. "Fanned-out paddles are a sculptural, cheeky take on the classic round mirror." Not sure that I am that crafty, but it's a neat idea. Polished mirror idea and fits perfectly into this gorgeous East Beach home. Would love to know what you think!

You have your raft, you have your trip plan, you've carved out the prep time to set everything up. Now what? When it comes to mounting your raft rowing frame, most folks will tell you there are only two options. Center mounts place the oarlocks at the halfway point along the raft’s waterline, putting the power on the pivot point. This is ideal for very heavy loads, and is the most common setup for multi-day rigs. [ Also read: The Greatest River Running Essential No One Talks About ] Stern mounts put the guide seat on the back tube, sitting high on the rocker with oars in lap. This is a typical commercial day trip setup, where the guide wants to keep the clients in view and away from the oars. The fact is, the typical recreational rafter’s boat is not loaded with three weeks of food and gear, or with six to 10 passengers. For a day trip or weekend, a centre mount will likely place passengers forward of the oars, making the raft bow heavy. With a stern mount, you can’t back ferry and the guide’s power is lost in flexing the raft’s rocker, rather than turning or moving the boat. [ Paddling Buyer's Guide: Browse all rafts ] Figuring out a raft oar setup The ideal position lies in between. For a light gear load and a couple of passengers, placing the oarlocks two-thirds along the waterline with the guide seat in front of the stern rise makes for a balanced and predictable ride. The pivot stays near the centre of the raft, the guide can hold an angle pushing or pulling, is efficient pulling the flats and doesn’t mess with the stern rocker. The trick is to experiment with different positions—don’t view the frame as fixed. You’ll find different setups for various load types. Move not only the frame, but also the oarlocks and seat to best position, and then mark those locations on the frame with a Sharpie. Several D-ring placements and long frame straps help keep options open.
