Follow along as Bob designs a set of oars starting with a spruce log. Boat builder Bob Emser creates an elegant set of oars for the small dinghy "Victoria". Crafted out of a log from a spruce tree Steve Denette's great grandfather planted. These oars will power the tender for her mothership "Arabella" This is part one of designing and shaping the oars.

“If you’re going to make it, make it beautiful.”
Bob Emser
