Emergency Paddle. Telescopic shafted single blade paddle.

Took me a wee while to find this.
Most every site I went to were trying to sell you what I would term a replacement or spare paddle. An emergency solution by definition tends to suggest one that is temporary and adequate only to ensure continuance of an operation until a more permanent replacement can be found.
Its a solution that is generally adopted because of financial constraints…. so the idea of buying an emergency paddle at the same price as a regular one is non nonsensical …….. anyway.. final got this for £20. It IS an emergency paddle, one that willsurfice to get me to shore should the unlikely but possible event of me loosing or breaking my regular one.
Packs down wonderfully small and although light still feels strong and rigid. Will probably only ever get used as a tennis racket or midge basher - but heho - its there and will do should the need arise ……. and they wanted £150 + …. On ya bike!!!!
