Yes, it is all three classes of lever depending on the point in the stroke. Your hands are the fulcrums and the oar is the beam.
If you use oarlocks then it is a first class lever with the fulcrum in the center.
If you use it as a paddle then it is a third class lever with the fulcrum as mentioned before in the hand opposite the load.

Are oars attached to a boat first class lever?
Yes, oars on a boat are a type of first-class lever because the pivot point (fulcrum) is at one end, the effort is applied at the other end where the rower pulls, and the resistance is the water pushing against the blade. The oar's position and function follow the principles of a first-class lever.
What class lever is oars?
Oars are typically considered second-class levers, where the load is located between the input force (the rower) and the fulcrum (the oarlock).
A friend tells you that a rowboat is propelled forward by the force of its oars against the water First explain wheather the statement is correct and then identify the action and reaction and reac?
He is incorrect. Newton's 3rd law states that any force has an equal and opposite force. This means he pushes back on the water with the oars (normal), and this creates a forward normal force on the oars pushing the oars and the boat forward.

What is a rowboat made of?
A rowboat is the North American term for what the British term is a rowing boat. A rowing boat is a small boat propelled by the use of oars. It can be made from wood planks set in clinker (overlapping planks) or carvel (planks butted against each other and creating a smooth surface). If such small boats are made from glass fibre or other such modern plastic type materials, it is likely to be called a dinghy or pram dinghy.
