Converting 2 piece paddle to 1 piece
Anyone ever convert a 2 piece touring paddle to 1 piece? Any regrets on not being able to adjust the feather? I have a Carlisle Expedition fiberglass paddle that I really like but it has some wobble in the ferrule/spring button. I was thinking about epoxying it together to make a 1 piece. I haven't done a ton of kayaking, but am set up for day tours on western rivers/lakes. I prefer zero feather for now, but wonder if I may want to switch to 60 degrees at a later date. The feathered setting feels pretty weird right now. The only options are either 0 or 60, but tempted to just epoxy it together at 0 and call it good. Not sure if some people switch back and forth on feathering or just stick with what they like all the time......
