I have made several Greenland paddles, two of western red cedar that I use all the time( the last several years). Two weeks ago I finally decided to build a storm paddle...after all the discussion of late. I used pine on this first paddle and make it a full 3 !/2 inches wide versus 3 3/16 for my regular paddles.....after a couple of paddles it feels very "BIG" width wise.
