I'm not arthur, but...

I've got 60, 70, 80 and 90 degree feathered paddles.  The 70 degree
is my current favorite feather angle.

I started with the 90, then 80, then 60, found 60 was too little and went
for a little under 70 (I bought a paddle without the blades attached and
put them on myself).  

When I can afford it I'll be getting an epic paddle with the adjustable 
feather and length and then I'll be able to isolate the exact feather I like.
