The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom uses everyday objects like a Boat Oar as makeshift weapons until you find a better and proper alternative.
While it looks sturdy enough to be used against strong currents, you will be wielding the Boat Oar as a two-handed wooden weapon to defend yourself against enemies.
Featuring a base attack of 4, here is how you can find the Boat Oar in Zelda: TotK.
There is more than one way to get your hands on a Boat Oar in Zelda: TotK. Each location has been marked below on the map to make your search easier.
Hateno Beach
Make your way to Hateno Beach, the location marked with a circle on the map above. This is just north of East Necluda.
When you get there, search through the docked boats and the items on the beach to find a Boat Oar in Tears of the Kingdom.
Keep an eye on the water as well since there is a chance to spot a Boat Oar floating out in the waters.
Toronbo Beach
Head to the location marked with an arrow on the map above, the southeast corner of the Hyrule map. You will find a boat docked over there that has a Boat Oar. It cannot get simpler than that. You, though, might have to deal with a few enemies before getting hold of the Oar.
Boat Oar Stats
While not the best weapon in the game, Boat Oar can be fused with Korok Fond to create a cheap and effective Fond Guster. This weapon can propel boats or clear sand dunes without wasting precious resources.

As Boat oars are made of wood, we recommend avoiding using them in areas like the Eldin Region, or you will lose them immediately.
