Matt,
Thanks for the reply. Some good observations there. I’ll have to go back and reread some stuff, your thoughts on longer vs shorter make more sense than what I was remembering. The Aquabound Manta Ray Carbon is the paddle I’m looking at. I may go ahead and go for it in the size needed for my kayak, and just see how it works out for the packraft. I know it will make a difference in the kayak.
