Overview

The Pelican Sport PS0657-2 is an aluminum kayak paddle built for recreational paddlers who want a reliable, low-maintenance tool on the water. The two-piece anodized aluminum shaft is lightweight yet strong, resisting the corrosion that comes with regular exposure to fresh and saltwater. The polyethylene blades are engineered for maximum impact resistance, handling bumps against rocks, docks, and shallow bottoms without cracking or chipping. Available in 84-inch and 89-inch lengths and three color options — black, green, and orange — the paddle can be matched to different kayak widths and personal preferences.

Adjustability is a key feature of this paddle. The ferrule connection allows blade angle adjustment from 0 to 65 degrees across three locking positions, so you can set a feather angle that reduces wind resistance on forward strokes or go completely unfeathered for a simpler paddling motion. Drip rings positioned on each side of the shaft intercept water running off the blades, helping to keep your hands and lap drier during extended sessions. The two-piece breakdown makes it straightforward to stow the paddle in a vehicle trunk or storage compartment when you are off the water.
