Please provide measurements for a standard Greenland paddle. We will then use these to reduce the paddle to a storm length for you.

Description
The main body of the blade is Western Red Cedar which is lighter but less strong. WRC varies significantly in colour from very light to deep red, both from plank to plank and within each plank.
The darker hardwood edge armour are generally made from Walnut or mahogany.
The lighter hardwood edge armour are generally made from Ash, cherry or Popular/Tulipwood
In all case the timber is chosen from our available stock to have an appealing appearance.
The blade length is determined by subtracting the loom length from the over-all length and dividing by two. . . . the longer the loom the less blade you have to work with!
We are no longer making the ‘Western Wide’ version of this paddle. Making a paddle of wider dimensions than our medium version negates many of the benefits of using a Greenland paddle.

Looks and feels splendid. Yet to test it on the water.
