Call Catarac and ask about there "Seconds"...been runnin em for a while now and there still the same strength and Warrenty! Shafts are 45.00 and blades are 23.00 + 19.00 a piece for wrapping and 4,00 for the stopper. Make sure you special order your wrapping 8 more inches up the handle than stock. That way your oars are not riding on the stops and the oar rite is only used when the oars are dropped and needed to keep the boat from swaying in heavy current. I wouldent use Oar Rites to oar with cause you should have a little rotation in your blade when rowing bac and forth. Oar Rites are harder on wrists and dont allow that "finese" factor plug pulling always requires. You are constantly manipulating the posisition of your oars in a drifter. Especially with plugs...
