Can you identify this paddle?

Getting ready to sell this paddle from a previous life but have no idea which model Werner it is. 230 cm.

Thanks for you help:

Looks like a mid-tour, which is a slightly heavier Camano with a black shaft, the Camanos had blue shafts.

Of course this is only accurate if the paddle is several years old.

Edit: I don't think the mid tour had glass blades, so this might be a Camano.

I'm with Mike on this. It looks like an old FG Camano, which was my first paddle and the one I still use for backup. The shaft on mine, bought in 2002, is blue. My husband also has a 2002 FG Camano only the blades are mango; the shaft is black.

Here's a link to Werner Paddles which might be helpful. It appears they're making the Camano in carbon now (or black FG) but the blade shape for it and for other Werner paddles might give you a clue.

Thank Mike and Deb,

Sure looks a lot like this mid-tour picture I found, but not sure:

I wrote Werner and asked if they can identify if for me. Will let you know the results.

Hmm, it looks just like the fiberglass Camano I had in the mid 90's, it had a black shaft also...

Thanks Beth. Anyone know what the list price was back then? Approx?
