Some have heard that if you need nursing home care and run out of the money, the nursing home will take your home away. This isnât true. But your home can be lost, especially if you havenât planned in advance. Let me explain how this works. A nursing home canât âgo afterâ a personâs home or other assets.
The handles of a pair of oars should overlap by 4 inches, that is, the inboard portion of each is 2 inches longer than half the distance between the rowlocks. The distance between the rear edge of the rower's seat and the rowlocks should be about the distance between the inside of the rower's wrist and the inside of the elbow.
The inboard is determined by where you set the collar on the sleeve. Here are some basic recommendations for both sculls and sweep oars. Measure the spread of your boat (the distance between the pins that hold the oarlocks). Take half of this dimension and add 6â8 cm. This will give you a reasonable inboard dimension. Measure this distance from the end of the handle and position the collars at that point.
