ABSTRACT:
An oarlock of the invention is attached to a boat for supporting an oar. The oarlock is basically formed of an oar supporting member, a pivot part, and a bolt for assembling the oar supporting member and the pivot part. The oar supporting member is formed of one clamping plate which is shaped into a cylindrical oar holder part and a rectangular lower part with a rectangular opening at the bottom thereof. The pivot part is formed of a top portion with a through hole and a pin. When the oar supporting member and the pivot part are assembled, the bolt is inserted into through holes of the oar supporting member and a through hole of the pivot part. When the oar held in the oar supporting member is moved up or down, one of the side edges of the top portion hits a corresponding edge of the rectangular opening, so that the pivotal movement of the oar can be desirably restricted within a certain range.
