Product title: Cataract SGG Counter-Balanced Composite Raft Oar Shaft w/ Wrap & Stop
SKU: EPA_NSCATSSSGSB-Black-009.5ft

The Cataract SGG Counter-Balanced Composite Raft Oar Shaft w/ Wrap & Stop has an internal counterbalance weight in the handle area. This offsets the weight of the blade and shaft past the oarlock for easy, low-fatigue rowing for all-day rowing comfort during your adventure.

  • Spiral wound fiberglass and carbon fiber lay up flexes and rebounds like a wooden oar without the maintenance issues of wood
  • Four-pound weight added counters the weight of the oar out past the oarlock
  • The end of the handle is notched for thumb placement
  • The shaft comes with rope wrap and rubber stopper for quiet rowing
  • Cataract shafts are made with the same filament wound glass/carbon/epoxy composite technology used by the aerospace industry
  • Sold individually

Product Tips:
