I suggest a Greenland paddle, which is an excellent paddle for sculling and rolling, has good indexing, and is easy on the joints and muscles. Among other things, Greenland paddles have larger looms than most fiberglass paddles, so they fit large hands better. The best solution might be for your husband to make his own Greenland paddle. A self-made paddle can be proportioned to your husband's dimensions, and is very inexpensive to make. There is an illustrated step-by-step article on how to make a Greenland paddle on the Paddlewise Web site.
