I joined the Vedbaek club for a weekend tour of the south Zealand archipelago, south of Copenhagen. This is an area of shallow water with humps of moraine making low rounded islands.
Our base was an old eel smoke house converted into a luxurious holiday house.

We were a group of 16. Second from the left is our hostess, Marianne, who part owns the house.
I made the mistake of borrowing a wing paddle with a large offset angle. After 20 km my wrist was aching so I feared I would have to land and ask someone to fetch me by car. Fortunately Robert is an enthusiast for the Greenland style paddle.

He lent me his spare paddle. After a few more km, my wrist did not hurt any more and I was persuaded of the merit of this neglected paddle shape.
