My New Greenland Paddle




Finish sanded and ready for epoxy on the tips and a couple of coats of tung oil. I still need to burn my initials and the date into it also. It turned out pretty good, and I'm happy with it.

Looks nice!

How's spring coming along there in Michigan?

Thanks!

Today was cold, gray, blustery, and a little rainy. You can see that the grass is just barely trying to start growing in the pics. The ice is gone off the lakes, but the water temp is still in the thirties. I'm not confident enough to get out on them just yet.

Beautiful kayak colours Richard!

Thanks Wenley,
British Racing Green on top(cuts down on sun-glare induced headaches), and International Distress Signal(mango)on the bottom. I hope that I never need to show the orange for very long.
