Could have used this info many years ago when I was at Shaw & Tenny, oar manufacturers in Maine. I was talking with a woman there about what size spoons to buy and we had quite a discussion. I asked her is it would help for her to see my boat, and she replied in the affirmative. I took her to the parking lot where I had a load of clear northern white cedar. I had just picked it up and was on my way home to Massachusetts. She had a good laugh.
When I was a ten year old, I remember rowing my uncle Babe’s fishing boat.( I was too young by his standards to operate the Johnson kicker) The oar handles were at the height of my eyeballs. Wasn’t until I made my first set of oars that I realized how pleasant rowing can be!

Please excuse me, but the fulcrum of the oar is at the oarlock, not at the blade.
Oh my … I now realize how stupid I am. 🤦♂️ Can I measure my boat and get you to tell me what size oar I need?
My take is: "so that's why they invented the engine"🤔🤔
Good God, I know less now that before i saw this. plus for someone with less than 100% color vision, this presentation is very difficult to see.
