Rusty,

There is an article in the How-to section of the MSOG site on sculling oars for the Montys. Go to http://msog.org/how-to/oars.cfm to see the article, and go to the Small Boat Journal articles on the subject at http://councill.home.mindspring.com/sbjournal/sbjournal.html

Also a couple of sites listed in the MSOG Links list for sculling and oars site, notably, http://www.oarclub.org/index.html

Gee, that MSOG site has just about everything!

Hey, everyone.
  I have already learned the art of hating my
outboard(a Tohatsu 2.5 that Dik Lang assures me will
run fine if taken good care of.) I am sure many of you
know my pain. LOL I am ready to forgo the whole
outboard and go motorless like the Pardeys(whom I was
fortunate enough to sail with, for about 15 minutes, a
story for another time.) My question for you is, have
any of you relied on alternative sources of
propulsion, and what have been your successes(and
failures.) I am thinking oars(standing facing forward)
for the M-15. What about a single paddle with the
tiller tied off? This is mostly for getting in and out
of the marina, not for long distance. I am looking
forward to hearing your suggestions!
