: Hi All,

: I'm not a fan of euro paddles but I got hooked into making one and am to the
: point of installing the ferrule. I bought a Sawyer S.S. type and I am
: curious how to position the holes. The one I have has three holes with two
: being closer to each other. Which one is the one intended to provide an
: unfeathered paddle? and which direction supports a right handed vice left
: handed paddle?

Since two holes are closer together, I suspect that it's designed to provide unfeathered and two different feather angles in the same direction (either right or left, but not both), say 45/60 degrees or 60/90 degrees. Perhaps the best thing to do is to stick some makeshift blades into the ferrule and play with the settings to see what the effect is.

BTW, the term you want is not "vice", but "versus" (or vs.).
