Free or oar rights for rowing?

[skyegod]

I learned to row last year, no oar rights. I did try them once at the end of the season, and did not enjoy them. When I got my rig this year, I went with rope wrap and donut. It is definitely a learning curve. But hey I am learning. but when all is said and done, I think that if it works for you, and you end the day with a great big goofy grin on your face, and your passengers are feeling the same way - then what does it really matter. Just get out there and have some damn fun! DAMNIT!!!

This topic seems to stir similar emotions as some of the political threads in the Eddy! Pretty damn funny, I agree with skyegod and Ween... just do what you wanna, it'll be oK!

So, am I seeing a link between big ego's and no oar rights? Sheesh, you non-oar right folks need to get your panties out of a bunch. It's just personal preference. Am I less of a man if I drink Miller Light vs. Guiness? Well, yes on that one.

Uhhhh, dude. I don't wear panties. Maybe that is part of your problem, besides the oar rights that is. Glad they work for you. The undergarments or the rights. Does that make it easier to dry your sack after you get flipped out of the boat from your oar getting stuck in an eddy and you can't twist it to get the oar out?


Dave Frank and Lhowe are boating buddies I met through the buzz, and I will still boat with them - oar rights and all.

What is really over the top is the mention of that other beer in the same sentence as Guinness. NOT COOL.

I didn't know you could even call that other product a beer.

Help, I'm a panty wearing weekling who's not strong enough to get my oar out of an eddy! Please, throw me a turkey leg and a whistle!

You are correct though, the beer comment was way over the top. My sincere apologies to the beer gods.

perfect response.
