    I have had a Hornbeck now for 3 years. I have tried a double bladed kayak paddle and could never seem to get use to it. My buddy has one as well and loves the oars he bought with it. For me, I much prefer to use a single blade paddle and enjoy a bent blade. Easy troll with a rod in a holder on one side and paddle on the other. As far as carrying the boats, I use a homemade yoke and my buddy has a pack frame with oar locks in the top of the tubes he prefers.

      As a former competitive rower, all sculling is done with the left hand over the right. Once in a while you'll get knuckle scraping, but its something you get used to.

      Edit: Can you rig one side higher than the other?
