Turtle Paddle Works

Bracebridge

canoe paddles

“Every paddle we make is hand carved from a solid piece of select-grade hardwood and finished with a wet oil sanding and multiple coats of gloss spar varnish.

Our long, slender blades are fully cambered with finely tapered edges to glide easily and quietly through the water. Oval shafts add strength to these rugged tripping paddles while keeping the weight down. They are comfortable to hold and properly balanced. Our pear shaped grips are well rounded to fit your hand and oiled instead of varnished for a smoother feel and to help prevent blisters from forming.”

Kettlewell Paddles

Minden

canoe paddles

“Kettlewell paddles are all hand-carved of a single piece of wood. Hand carving ensures maximum use of the characteristics of each individual piece of wood. It also makes it possible to balance each paddle. Proper balance means the paddle can be held very lightly, never clenched. Hand-carving means that every blade can be perfectly smooth and symmetrical, so that the blade slips smoothly through the water like a fish, never running off or fighting the paddler. Just the right amount of flex is built into a paddle through the carving, never too much so that energy is lost, or too little so that water feels like concrete. Every paddle is tested for flex, and strength.”
