Vintage Redtail Maple Wood Canoe Paddle

Vintage Redtail Canoe paddle ( around 1998 production ). This is a 60" tall beaver tail canoe paddle made of burned maple wood. It is nicely flexible and excellent for "voyageur" style distance paddling or light river running. Redtail paddles was a high end paddle maker from Hastings Ontario Canada. It's a beautiful piece of wood that is functional as art as much as a working, tough canoe paddle. This type of paddle is a deeper "dip" so is still designed for a medium size paddler (5'6" to 6').
