Wee Lassie was designed for use with a double-bladed paddle, but perhaps a Greenland might be too long - WL is a short boat. Despite the sizing advice usually given based on paddler height alone, with these tiny boats the paddle needs to be scaled down in proportion or tracking is impaired. Just MHO.
I love the WL, it's an exquisite design, I hope you are going to post a pic!
