Oar You Ready?

I fished up the most curious thing the other day. It was an oar, one from a rowboat that might have been attached to one of the larger ships that crashed here. When I held the splintering wood up to the light I had an idea: why not use this as a weapon? I only killed a few rabbits on Rabbit Island with it before I angered the Harekeeper's wraith, but overall not a bad run for a piece of wood. I think I shall keep this oar, and use it to hit things far away from me.
