 **Tollpinnar**, **tullar** eller **årtullar**, pinnar av trä eller järn, som stickas i hål i relingen på en båt att lägga årorna emellan vid rodd. På tullbordet finnes ofta emellan tullarna en roddlapp för årån att slita på.

+**THOLE**, **THOLE-PIN**, OR **THOWEL** [from the Anglo-Saxon thol]. Certain pins in the\\
+gunwale of a boat, instead of the rowlock-poppets, and serving to retain the oars in\\
+position when pulling; generally there is only one pin to each oar, which is retained upon\\
+the pin by a grommet, or a cleat with a hole through it, nailed on the side of the oar. The\\
+principal use is to allow the oar, in case of action, suddenly to lie fore-and-aft over the\\
+side, and take care of itself. This was superseded by the swinging thowel, or metal\\
+crutch, in 1819, and by admiralty order at Portsmouth Yard in 1830.
+===== Dictionary of Nautical Words and Terms - 1982 =====
+**Thole**,** Thole Pin**. Metal or wooden peg inserted in gunwale of a boat for oar to heave against when rowing without crutch or rowlock.
