The Aquabound Manta Ray is the most popular kayak paddle that we sell. This paddle has a aluminum shaft and fiberglass reinforced high temperature nylon blade. It comes standard as a two piece paddle and can be paddled unfeathered or with a right or left handed feather. The Manta Ray is a general purpose paddle designed for recreational kayaks. The blade has plenty of power to keep even short wide kayaks moving along. We offer the Manta Ray in 220, 230 or 240cm lengths. The 230cm size works well for the majority of recreational and touring kayaks that are 25" - 29" wide. If you have kayak that is over 30" wide, such as a double, then the 240cm length may be necessary to adequately clear the sides. Weight is 40oz for a 230cm paddle. All Aquabound Paddles are available in a four piece construction for an additional $10.00 cost. Please call for details 1-800-832-4226.
