This paddle is made by Patrick O`Connor. I tried it and it was very nice. The kayak is Mark Hansen's. It's almost always on display at the North House Folk School. It paddles nicely.

Dave took out the Siskiwit Bay for some rolling. He found that by rolling near the mouth of the Poplar River that the warm water from the river and the cold water from Superior was mixing to make a bath water like place to roll in.
