Does it float? This is a valid question and a rather important one for a canoe paddle don't you think?

I received my paddle today and used for first time on a lake raft trip with my grandchildren. This paddle DOES NOT float.. DON'T BUY THIS PADDLE Disappointed by false advertising.

What is the diameter of the hole in the handle? Want to put a securing rope through it.

A small diameter rope would work. Home Depot/Lowe's will have a selection.
