Just a quick tip: don't count on the clip-brackets alone to secure the paddle to your i11s; I lost mine yesterday fishing in some rougher water, didn't even notice until I was back at the launch (fishing buddies pulled me in, no problem). Reviewing my video footage, the paddle kept sliding backwards when I went over waves, until finally it just broke free. Maybe if the fishing weren't so great I'd have noticed my paddle sliding off the boat!

Thanks guys, I picked up a cheap non-hobie paddle (the horror!) and will velcro it to the bracket holder.

I leash everything I don't want to loose.
Lost a 300$ Fly rod not leashing it.
