• Dory oars are typically longer than standard oars, ranging between 8 to 12 feet. Their length provides better leverage and control for rowing in open water.
• Dory oars often have a tapered blade and shaft design, which reduces weight and improves the efficiency of each stroke.
• Traditional dory oars are crafted from durable, lightweight woods such as spruce, ash, or pine, combining strength and buoyancy.
• The oars are carefully balanced, with the proper distribution of weight along the shaft, making them easier to handle for prolonged rowing sessions.
• Dory oars are designed to handle the challenging conditions of open oceans and coastal waters, where waves and wind require precise control and strength.
• Dory oars were vital tools for fishermen in the 18th and 19th centuries, allowing them to row dories to and from larger ships or fishing grounds.
• These oars were used on dory boats, which were flat-bottomed and lightweight, making them easy to row and maneuver in rough waters.
• Today, dory oars are still used for recreational rowing and racing, particularly in traditional boat clubs and maritime heritage events.
• Dory oars, along with the boats they accompany, are symbols of New England’s rich maritime history, particularly in fishing and boatbuilding.
