Oar

“Remember, back straight, move those arms!”

The Oar is a craftable Item in the Seafaring Tab, exclusive to Don't Starve Together, and introduced in Return of Them. It requires a Log to craft, and a Think Tank to prototype. An Oar can be used to move a Boat across the Ocean.

If used inconsistently (too little time between uses), the player will be splashed with water and gain 9 , while the Oar will lose an amount of durability that is equivalent to 25 uses.

Driftwood Oar[]

“A much more efficient, lighter design.”

–Wickerbottom

The Driftwood Oar can also be crafted in the Seafaring Tab. It requires a Driftwood Piece to craft instead of a Log. Driftwood Oars only last for 400 uses but apply 1.66 times the force of a regular Oar to the Boat with each use.

Failing at rowing with a Driftwood Oar will also increase the player's Wetness by 9 and reduce its durability by 25 uses.

Trivia[]

Both types of Oars were introduced in the Turn of Tides update.
Oars can also be used as Weapons. However, it's not advised to do so due to the low damage they deal.
A Malbatross Bill can serve the same purpose as Oars.
