Just for fun, I handed my friend Patrick my gps unit the other night on a calm
reservoir.  He paddles a VCP Skerray and has been using a GP more and more
lately.  I invited him to try and reset my top speed display, 6.9mph in a
Prijon Catalina with a Nimbus Wavewalker Euro style paddle. He handed it back
to me a few minutes later with 7.3mph showing.  I'll never question the
efficacy of a Greenland paddle again.
