We very seldom hear of French paddlers, but the following site makes up for it! Contains good photos including underwater pictures of a paddler wreck. There are some very good photos of paddler models as well. (Click on RECONSTITUTIONS for model pictures).
site address is http://annecy.vapeurs.free.fr/    Cheers, Walter.

Are you sure that web address is correct Walter? I get a server not found error...

Sorry Eddy, I missed /index from the adress (ive amended it). This site is a MUST. The videos of the models are priceless. A search of the links also brings up more sites with videos of full size paddlers. Search every avenue of it as there are some real treasures. Cheers, Walter.

Still can't get it with that link Walter (at least on my steam computer!). This one worked though: http://annecy.vapeurs.free.fr/
