Aluminum alloy and PVC universal oar bases and paddle holders designed for inflatable boats, kayaks, and small craft Key benefits Longlasting construction: aluminum alloy combined with PVC resists corrosion and damage from prolonged water exposure, reducing the need for frequent replacements. Secure paddle retention: paddle clip holder and oar lock latch keep paddles and oars fixed in place when not in use, preventing loss and minimizing interruptions. Improved control and steering: universal oar bases provide a reliable pivot point for smoother rowing and easier maneuvering on the water. Versatile compatibility: fits most kayak paddles, oars, and inflatable boat mounting points as a kayak paddle mount base and boat oar holder. Low maintenance: materials and design are easy to clean and require minimal upkeep after use in fresh or salt water. What it does Acts as a robust mounting base for kayak paddles and oars, integrating both an oar lock holder and a paddle clip holder. Provides a pivoting oar base that supports efficient strokes and flexible steering, which helps with direction changes and precise handling. Keeps paddles stowed securely when landing, fishing, or switching to a motor. Materials and performance Construction: aluminum alloy and PVC for corrosion resistance and structural reliability. Function: durable oar lock latch and clip mechanism to hold paddles steady while allowing quick release for use. Performance: designed to withstand repeated exposure to water and normal onwater wear without significant degradation. Compatibility and fit Intended for use with inflatable boats, kayaks, dinghies, and other small vessels. Universal design accommodates a wide range of paddle and oar shaft diameters and standard mounting configurations. Compact, lowprofile form that mounts to typical boat surfaces without obstructing deck space. Practical use scenarios Fishing from an inflatable boat: secure the paddle in the clip holder while you cast and reel, preventing drift and freeing both hands. Photography or sightseeing in a kayak: latch the paddle quickly to the oar base during stops to stabilize the boat and capture shots without juggling gear. Fleet or rental maintenance: worn or corroded bases with a durable aluminum alloy and PVC option to extend service life and reduce replacement frequency. What to expect in everyday use Reliable holding power when paddles are stowed, simple release when you need to paddle. Durable components that tolerate salt and fresh water with routine rinsing and basic care. Improved handling and reduced risk of losing paddles on casual paddling, fishing, or touring trips.
