Hi trd1
For a 10' jonboat I'd recommend getting 7ft or 7 1/2ft oars.
With smaller oars you'll work 2x harder than necessary.
Longer oars will make you track straighter.
Check any boatyards near you for a used pair -> seems they always have some laying around -> Also some thrift shops may have some..
