Abstract:
A paddle suitable for use with a kayak or like watercraft, the paddle comprising: (a) a tubular shaft extending from a first blade located at a first end to a second blade located at a second end; (b) a sleeve mounted on the tubular shaft, the sleeve having an outer surface; and (c) a lever extending along a curvature from a proximal end to a distal end, the proximal end being pivotably mounted to the sleeve, the lever comprising a lengthwise extending chamber having an opening provided on an upper wall of the lever and a closed end located remote from the opening and wherein the chamber communicates with a passage extending towards an entry located at the distal end, the lever being movable between a first position, wherein the lever is located proximate the outer surface of the sleeve, and a second position, wherein the distal end of the lever is accessible by the mouth of a user for allowing the user to blow in the entry for generating an airstream within the passage and the chamber such that sound is produced when the airstream emerges from the opening.
