Does anyone know of a DIY method of removing water trapped in a paddle shaft? And keeping it out?

I have a Lendal Storm and for reasons I care not admit (okay, I accidentally picked up one half of my Storm and the other half of my wife’s Cypress), I had to put my Storm/Cypress combo on the deck and paddle with my old Corryvrecken, today.

Now I have water trapped in the shaft of one half of my Storm.

Related question…. anyone know how to get in touch with LendalNA? I went to their website and clicked on “Contact” and all I got was a “Forbidden. You do not have permission to access this page,” message.

Hi Richard,

I had water rattling inside my spare Cypress every time it got wet,

It was just seaweed or something similar blocking egress. I got a knitting needle and poked gently inside the shaft and released the debris.

No more water rattling.

Worth a try….

🙂
