Greenland Paddle Question

Posted by Matt Croce on Jul 3, 2005

As I get closer to finishing my CH16 (got the deck put on tonight, hope to get it glassed before heading overseas for a couple of months), I've been thinking about what I'll use to paddle it...I'll probably end up buying and ONNO paddle, but I'm thinking about making a Greenland paddle as well, and trying that out...

So, here's my question...I hate paddling with a regular paddle that isn't feathered...should I make my Greenland paddle feathered, or is its use so different that it doesn't need to be?

I guess I'll probably go try one out before I make one, and will see for myself, but I wanted to see what everyone thinks, too.

Thanks Matt
