Otter tail paddle review and mods/
It's paddle whipping Friday.<br />Today I am whipping a pair of 58" Cherry Otter tail paddles made by Mr. Fishell. Greg came up with a perfect logo/brand.<br /> I sanded the varnish off the top half but left it on the blade section. I personally don't care for the feel of a varnished paddle handle but do like it on the blades. I coated the whipping and upper paddle with three coats of Teak oil. The whipping protects the paddle and the gunwales and provides a nicely textured Silky handhold. The cord is satin nylon that is very strong and doesn't stretch much at all. I put it on super tight and tucked both free ends fully under the wraps. Overall I am super happy with these paddles. Highly recommended!!
