I have what I am pretty darn sure are 4 (2 sets) or original 1950-ish Alumacraft oars that came with my boat.
They are about ohhh... 7 - 8ft tall... solid pieces...
They have, what I think is a leather cuff around the oar, and that is wrapped in the metal bracket with the insert, with the locking pin...??
Any value to these?... they are pretty beat up, but useable ...some cracking and splitting....
Am thinking of sanding them down, putting some wood filler in the cracks and splits, staining, and sealing them...
Although I am modifying the boat, and painting it, I would like to keep some of the antiquities that accompany the boat.
[Edit - I was just told the "metal brackets" I refer too are the oar mounts.]
