I'm having a similar problem.  I have a pine oar on my pine raft, yet I can't pick it up with the Ctrl+Right click.  Both hands are empty when I try it.

Is the cross hair pointing right at the oar and the black wire frame comes up? It's fussy.

Interestingly, there is no "Block Interaction Help" (Cntrl + N) for the oar on a raft. (I might look into this - seems an oversight.)

However, check under Settings, Controls and if the "Mouse click modifiers locked to Sneak/Sprint keys" is set, and if so, that the Sneak and Sprint keys are different and as expected. I expect the mouse click to be "On", Sneak to be "Shift" and Sprint to be "Cntrl".

Finally, if none of that - any mods that might be impacting this? Current version? Try a small test world in Creative, make a raft and oar and see if those have the same issue.

I don't know how, but I was able to retrieve the oar.  It might have been a proximity issue (that is to say, I was close enough to highlight the oar, yet not close enough to retrieve it.)  I dunno.  Strange days.
