The Boat Oar is an item from The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. Link can use them as an improvised two-handed weapon. Enemies may also pick up and wield one if it is nearby. Armes in Lurelin Village also carries one around with him. Like all wooden weapons, it burns when it comes in contact with fire and it does not attract lightning during thunderstorms. Link can use it as a makeshift torch, although this reduces its durability and it will eventually burn up if it burns for too long. Due to its length, it is useful for lighting high stationary torches like the ones in Lurelin Village.
