ABSTRACT:
Improvement to boat rowing in which the oars are upwardly biased, rotationally biased and forwardly biased to lift out of the water, rotate into the feathered position and swing to the front of the boat when at rest. A cord, attached to foot pedals, pulls the oars into the vertical position, down into the water and rearward in the water for the power stroke. Oars may be operated by hands only, by feet only or by hands and feet.
