[Rhodes22-list] Re: Ro, Ro, Your Boat . . .

Ron, the ro is distinct from the yuloh, as described in the 
following articles: 

http://www.simplicityboats.com/yulohpage.html
http://www.woodenboat.net.nz/Stories/Sculling/scullone.html

One of the major differences between a ro and a yuloh is 
(per the Woodenboat article) the requirement to pull on a 
string/rope to set the yuloh blade correctly.

Bob,
Did the article state that this 'oar' is called a 'Yuloh'.
Read a long 'article' {on-line} about this some time ago. Included
Theory, pictures, building, & use.
Think I still have it, somewhere !!
Regards & Good Luck,
