ABSTRACT:
A paddle for a kayak, a canoe or other small boat has a shaft with a handle portion which extends from one end of a blade and a tongue portion formed by cutting away a section of the sidewall of the shaft to provide a chamber which extends along a surface of the blade. A filler member extending longitudinally within the chamber is adhered to the tongue portion of the shaft and also to the surface of the blade. This provides a light weight, high strength paddle construction which is economical to manufacture as the blade need not be formed with a bulky molded socket for enabling attachment of a shaft.
