Hinder vs. Thwart

By Jaxson

  • Hinder

    Hinder is an American rock band from Oklahoma that was formed in 2001 by lead singer Austin Winkler, guitarist Joe “Blower” Garvey, and drummer Cody Hanson. The band released four studio albums with Winkler; Extreme Behavior (2005), Take It to the Limit (2008), All American Nightmare (2010) and Welcome to the Freakshow (2012). After Winkler left the band in 2013, they looked for a new lead vocalist, and added Marshal Dutton. They have since released: When The Smoke Clears (2015) and The Reign (2017) with their new vocalist. Their seventh studio album is expected in 2020, with the lead single “Halo”. The band was inducted into the Oklahoma Music Hall of Fame in 2007.

  • Thwart

    A thwart is a strut placed crosswise (left/right) in a ship or boat, to brace it crosswise. In rowboats it can also serve as a seat for a rower.

    Some inflatable boats have a thwart which can be folded and removed so the boat can be deflated and rolled up for transport or storage.
