Oar carrier

摘要

Oar carriers and methods of carrying oars, for example, rowing blades or sculls used by competitive rowing crews. The oar carriers include a panel, through holes in the panel sized to receive a shaft of an oar, and slots in a peripheral surface of the panel providing open access to the through holes to allow transfer of the shaft to the through hole. The slots may have a minimum width less than the diameter of the shaft of an oar, where the slot is made of a resilient material adapted to deflect and allow the diameter of the shaft to transfer to the through hole. One or more handles may be provided to the carrier. Methods of using the oar carrier and arrangements of oars and oar carriers are also disclosed.
