and shapes. The graph below is a guide to which size spraydeck is most likely to fit your kayak.

Cockpit Length (cm)

Getting the right fit

Every model of kayak has a slightly different cockpit size and shape. For this reason, it is always
best to try a spraydeck on your cockpit before purchasing. A spraydeck that fits well should be
easy enough to put on by yourself, and stay on the cockpit as long as you need it to. Everyone
will have slightly different needs and priorities.

SPRAYDECK SIZING WEB APP

For 2011 we’ve produced a handy web app to help you find the right spraydeck. Search for your
kayak from hundreds of the most popular models and find the best fit for you.
Try it at http://bit.ly/spraydeck

WAIST SIZING

Measure the waist circumference at the smallest part of the waist (see diagram). This is often at
or slightly above the belly button.

Below is a guide to which size neoprene spraydeck is most likely to fit your waist. Palm touring
and Nylon spraydecks feature adjustable waists to fit most paddlers (60 cm–127 cm / 24”–50”).
