J erry Sutton established a wooden oar & scull company in1971 and soon gained an enviable reputation for outstanding

quality and service in the hand crafted manufacture of oars &

sculls. The early honours for Suttons included the Olympic and

World Championship gold, silver and bronze medals and at

Henley Royal Regatta, wins at all levels. Many prestigious

crews have all used Suttons oars and sculls including Oxford

and Cambridge.

In our time we have made almost every type of oar and scull

imaginable from 30ft barge oars to supplying the elite of the

racing world.

Upon Jerry's retirement, the mantle has been taken up by

Mark Stanley who today continues the excellence that was laid

down all those years ago.

Gig Racing

S utton came back into the world of Gig Racing in early 2002when John Cork recommended our oars to Rame Gig Club in

Cornwall. We had the pleasure of supplying them with a set of

men's blades, which were well received by Rame.

The Britannia Naval College ordered two sets that year to go

with their new boats and Peter Martin our mastercraftman

attended the launch of their new Pilot Gig boats in September

2002, were he met Kevin Pyne of Dartmouth Gig Club. They

discussed the possibly of Suttons making 30 Admiralty Oars

for the Dartmouth Royal Regatta, which we were delighted to

provide.

Since then we have continued to work closely with gig clubs

around the UK and through our research and liaisons with the

clubs we are now in a position to offer both the Juniors and

Ladies teams of rowers their own specified oars. This has

proved to be a beneficial move for the sport and enables the

teams to utilise/exploit their strength into a positive rowing

action.

J Sutton is delighted to be part of this exciting traditionalgrowth sport, which is awe inspiring to watch as well as take

part in. We are always continually looking at ways to improve

our knowledge and by working with the clubs we aim to

provide the best there is.

We would also like to take this opportunity to thank John

Cork for the reintroduction into this wonderful world of

traditional gig rowing.

"I was given a brief by the port of Dartmouth Royal Regatta

committee of which I am a member to investigate a

replacement oar for the standard admiralty patent heavy boat

whaler type oar, which has changed little in the past hundred

years.

I knew Peter Martin Of Suttons by reputation and met him

in person when he came down to the Dart to watch the royal

navel college who had just received a set of Suttons pilot gig

oars to participate in The Annual Lay Up Race held in

memory of my late wife.

I was very impressed by the standard of workmanship in

these oars. Pilot gig rowing has long been a favourite sport of

mine and I invited Peter to meet up with me at my store the

following day to discuss the way the heavy boat oar could be

adapted to better suit to our specific needs and importantly

strengthened at the base of the loom which up until now had

been a weakness.

My recommendation to our regatta Committee that we make

an initial purchase of thirty blades was accepted. So I made

an appealed to past rowers and the townsfolk in general to

help me finance the oars and offered to have the oars sign

written with the sponsors names should they chose to

purchase one. In a little over a week I am happy to say all the

oars where paid for.

The Sutton oars came in on time, on price and of a very high

quality. They were used for the first time successfully at this

year's Royal regatta and with no breakage's".
