A stroke of inspiration. Introducing the Spring 2025 Builders Select Wapasha. Stunning hand-selected and book-matched black walnut sets you up for a stunning paddle. Hard maple selection is interspersed through the blade, shaft, and grip, and the blade is fully bound by hard maple for added beauty and durability. Not just for show, these paddles are also fully reinforced with fiberglass on both sides of the blade, and finished off with a hard epoxy rock guard. Unmatched elegance on the water. Limited to 4 paddles in each length, 56", 58", and 60".
Note that each paddle is hand-crafted. While each of these paddles is special, they will vary in terms of wood grain appearance from one paddle to the next.
Paddle Stats:
Blade Length: 23”
Blade Width: 6.5”

The beavertail shape has been used on canoe paddles for thousands of years, and for good reason. A long slim blade is smooth and quiet in the water while still offering sufficient power to fight off the wind. The Wapasha is our take on this classic shape.
