Anybody have an opinion on whether this is a >good/bad idea? jolie, we bought a paddle bag last year (can't remember who makes it, sorry). it holds 4 take-apart paddles. we took it to hawaii (well, i am so in love with my lightning paddle i wouldn't paddle with any rental stuff ever). just the one paddle was in there, but so were our surf and dive fins, bathing suits, flip-flops, and a lot of clothes. checked it thru twice, absolutely not a scratch on it, and wow, you can cram a lot of junk in those bags. ours has a strap so you can carry it on your back, a very handy feature. kcd *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
