Rest on one's ___ (take it easy) (4)

I believe the answer is:

oars

(Other definitions for oars that I've seen before include "Implements to propel or steer on water" , "These could make you row" , "Propellers for small boat" , "Implements to propel a boat" , "Rowing blades" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
