| Oarlock Position This may seem trivial... Where is the optimal location for fixed oarlocks on a classic narrow wooden dinghy? I've suggested that it should be about even with the aft edge of the seat. Anyone have a more scientific answer? -Dan |

| Usually they go about 8-10" aft of the thwart. The thwart should be about 8"-9" bellow the oarlock base |

| rowlock position My father and I have built many rowing boats, and we always used a measurement from his parents - 9" from the rear edge of the seat. |
