: I like the hatches to follow the strips. It blends in better. I did
: see a very nice boat with oval rubber hatches and it looked
: good. Rather than hiding them he made them look like they
: belong.

: As for the paddle, you must try a Greenland paddle. They are much
: better in wind and you will be amazed at the power you'll get.

Another nice thing about the Greenland paddle, if it's shaped correctly it's almost silent in use. You won't believe how noisy your euro paddle is until you try the GP.
