I am seeking to purchase another bent shaft paddle. I currently have a 52" wooden bent shaft that I got last year from a very friendly poster on this board, but I would like one slightly longer.

Let me know if you have an extra one laying around unused.

Location: Minneapolis. I will be (maybe) heading up to the Gunflint side of the park May 20th for a trip.

There's a 30% sale on sanborn paddles right now. I have a couple of theirs and really like them and it feels good to support a small MN company.

Thanks for the heads up, they make some really impressive paddles. Unfortunately, it appears they have sold out of their 2019 fleet.

There is a 54” BB Special on Minneapolis Craigslist for $85. Craigslist

Thanks for posting. I saw that as well on FB and reached out to the guy. It sold out fairly quick but I see the Craigslist ad is still up.

I hate when that happens. Somewhat irresponsible and inconsiderate of the seller. Have responded to a number of items only to be told it's been sold.

I build paddles and have a 54” bent shaft ready to go. Paddle has epoxy rock guard, fiberglassed blade and an oiled grip. Price is $125.

I have two bent shafts I no longer use, one of which is a 54" Bending Branches BB Special, $50, north of Duluth about 25 miles.

The other is a 52" which has some nice dark wood strips but you don't need that one.

Tuuli, I'm interested in taking a look at your paddles. I will be heading up that way next Tuesday. Do you happen to live near or off hwy 61? I will be going up the gunflint.

Stichy - Your paddles are beautiful, I've seen your posting on FB. I am currently looking to purchase a used paddle (for money reasons) but I will keep yours in mind for the future.

The 52" bent is a Bending Branches Cruiser.

The 52" is not a Cruiser. It is a BB Shadow.

The 52" bent BB Shadow has been SOLD.
Aldy1: The 54" BB Special is still available.

Sending you an email, thanks

Thanks for the compliment on my paddles. Hope you enjoy the BB special.

Is this Paddle still available? Would be heading up that way Saturday morning
