There are a couple of things to keep in mind when using a Water-Ready Painted Canoe Paddle that will greatly extend its life, and keep your paddle looking mint in and out of the water.
- Dimensions: 6" x 57"; Cherry Wood; color may vary
- Care & Use: Try to keep banging against the gunwales to a minimum
- The water-ready paddles do not have rock guards on the tip of the blade
- If you use the blade to push off of rocks & docks or any hard surface or shoreline for that matter, you will run the risk of damaging the blade which can result in chipping and further long-term damage
- We suggest using the grip of the paddle for push-off
- Wipe down your paddle after each use to avoid minimal wear and tear
- Over-Exposure To Sun: Although our finish has UV protection, it’s always good practice to keep your paddle out of direct sunlight when not in use
- When you are done paddling, hang it up
