I know several people who use kayak paddles in their canoes. About the
only thing you lose is the ability to low brace.

I can't see why. If you're sitting on the bottom of a high-gunneled canoe,
maybe, but if you can low-brace with a canoe paddle, you can low brace with a
kayak paddle.

Oh yeah - if the canoe is really beamy, you'll have quite a reach.
