> Good looking boat too!

Thanks It did take a few tries to figure out the best position to paddle .You have a very narrow grip on the shaft and a low angle when paddling.It does not excelerate as fast as a sport paddle but is very good for long distances very kind to the shoulders.Lots of hand positions and leaverage.
