: Roger - I love the picture! I can't wait to get my daughter's boat finished
: and on the water.

: How long is that GP paddle and how big is your son? I need to sort something
: for a paddle for my daughter. I originally had bought her a Bending
: Branches kid's paddle (Cattail), but even that is WAY too big.

I would suspect that the standard GP's anotomic (sp?) measurements would work for a kids paddle, since it's based on their size. Though since they tend to grow like weeds might want to add a couple inches to the length so they can use it for a couple months before they grow out of it ;)
