how to add oars to a float tube?

[cool][#0000ff]Thanks for the picture. It is very interesting and shows that it can be done. It looks like a simple stabilizer bar arrangement.[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]I have had an H3 as well as my Fat Cats. Both have a D ring on the top front of the air chambers, on either side, that would be strategically placed to help fasten something like that in place. The attached picture shows the one on the H3.[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]The one diSadvantage of having oars on a float tube is the lack of a foot rest, to help provide leverage for rowing. But, the positive side of that is that you can use both oar power and fin power at the same time if you are in a hurry. Of course, that will take both coordination and stamina.[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]You know, I might just try to fashion something like that for my tube. Thanks for the idea.[/#0000ff]
