Wanted: oars, sliding seat, rudder etc.

Post by W9GFO »

We've been accepted into the race - still have to pay the big entry fee. We had planned to build our own oars, sliding seat system and rudder but we are getting real short on time.

If anyone has some 9ft+ oars/sweeps, sliding seat parts or rudder it would save us the time in building them - which would be a great help.

It's a 20ft, two or three person boat that should end up weighing under 400 lbs. empty, loaded is about 1,100 lbs.

If we have a three person crew one can be resting in the small cabin while the other two are rowing/pedaling. It has two Hobie Mirage drives so it can have one rower and one pedaler or two pedalers.
