Don’t try this with your 42lbs canoe!

Frosty paddle in the core of Kitchener, Ontario. Just a 300 m portage to the LRT stop. Not that I would enter the LRT with a canoe!

I’ve been designing and building paddles. I’ve downsized each time and have ended on one that is 7.8oz which is less than 4 large eggs. Soon I test and it might fall apart—which would still be a fun pushing of the envelope.

Reflection.
Maybe watch for a while and then look at it upside down…

Morning paddle in my 11.6lb canoe.

Thanks for the great question.
20 gauge vinyl. One of the coolest parts is seeing the water, actually flow over the surfaces at the front of the canoe.

I call it Pheather2.
It weighs 11.6 pounds

Growing food that will never see a truck. Nature is amazing.

I decided not to exclude this cedar knot from my canoe paddle blade.
It was once the foundation of a branch that reached out to support the growth of the entire tree. It helped the rest of the wood grow strong.

What a difference two weeks can make.
