I would like to get a spare set of oars for my 13 ft two person pontoon boat. What are the pro-cons of the various materials, split vrs one piece, etc? The manufacture is sending 8 ft two piece oars (I don't know what they are made of, they are some type of metal, not wood). Since I'm getting 8 ft should I buy 7 ft for variation? Your advice is appreciated!

Oh- where would you recommend I go to get these? I live in Redmond. Thx.
