Tests tonight were showed maybe 2-3 seconds over 400m. Hard to tell with fatigue.
So I would say, enough difference for serious racing, but probably not enough difference for a leisurely paddle with your mates. Unless you and your mates are deadly serious about beating each other !!

often when we paddle the creek, we get weed snags. only takes three thin strands and you'll slow right down. if you like to do some resistance training, just take your leggie off and let it trail in the water
