Finaly i got the Oarling out on the water.
It was easy to row and where even more steady then i tought.
Only had it on the water for 20 min, but when i get the time i will try it out some more.

Boatbuilding in Norway ... I'm jealous. Nice boat.
Nice job, what are your plans for using her.

Awesome - another Oarling. Really nice job. I row my Oarling every chance I get and love it.
I added homemade outriggers that can fold into the boat. This gave me about 4 more inches on each side. I have been using 8ft straight blades, but have ordered longer spoon blades. I also found that I needed to build a raised seat for more comfortable rowing.
All in all, a great little boat - hope you enjoy it.
