Sneak Zippered Kayak Spray Skirt

I have tried it a few times now. It fits tight and it is the one recommended for PAKAYAKs which come with a big wide cabin. I am told that it also works with Wilderness systems TSUNAMI, you might want to try it.SEALS 2.2 is relatively big. This one works well and fits well with my KAYAK so I have no complains. It is nice that has two mesh compartments on the sides for small items and that it also has a zipper right in the middle.Overall it is a great product, good price too.SEALS SPRAY SKIRTS come in different sizes so be sure to chose the correct one for your kayaks.

At first glance, I could not justify the cost. My old (1980's) neoprene skirt was much cheaper. Given the importance of a spray skirt in open ocean conditions, I took a chance. Immediately upon opening the box, I could list half a dozen reasons to be impressed. Now that I've spent several full days of ocean paddling, and taken many unexpected waves, I can list the important reasons that justify this product.1. Weight of codura fabric: Heavy gauge, isn't going to rip.2. Quality of bungee liner, PVC handle/rear knot holder, and all around stitching is excellent.3. Taped seams everywhere.4. Front deck stiffener with underside lash strap to adjust stiffener arch.5. Adjustable neoprene collar to fit my torso, and yours.6. Shoulder straps are removable, could have been bar tacked cheaper; glad they are removable.7. Front zip with snap closure: Imperative. Great help to cool cockpit, and access water bottle.8. Quality of all zippers and snap closures. Any of them could have been cheapened.I have never been in a difficult outdoor situation and said; "I could have done this cheaper".I HAVE said to myself many times; "Oh, am I glad I got the best I could find".This skirt is another one of those 'best I could find'. I am most satisfied.

This item appears to be fairly well made. I have it on an Old Town Vapor Angler 10' kayak. It fits the large cockpit perfectly. I love that it has a large pull strap on the front for quick break away if you get in a bind. You can leave it on the boat and zip in and out of it, or wear it and put in on after you sit down. It has two zippered pockets for quick access and easy storage. I have not completely submerged the boat with this on yet so I can't say as to if water can get in. I will update this review after I do.UPDATE: I hit some class 2 and 3 rapids today. The skirt did great. My boat stayed dry through the white water. Its fairly hot here and you feel like you start overheating with the skirt on. If that happens scoop up some water and slash it on the skirt. Immediately cooler inside. On the bright side my legs are as pale as ever while my brother looks like he just survived a house fire with his legs burned on his sit on top. Great skirt

So this a great light to medium duty spray skirt to add to your kayak to keep you dry and warm. This is NOT a whitewater spray skirt (read the product descriptions on Seals site if you're unsure of what you need). The size 7.0 fit perfectly on my Vapor 12xt. My only issue is with the double direction zipper- it goofed up and now the zipper splits along the teeth. To field fix this you have to run the "top" zipper back and forth, then do the same with the "bottom" zipper until the teeth get back on track and it stays zippered. Kind of a pain, but this has been my experience with zippers on recreation gear- they're always the weak point and prone to fail...whether on tents, backpacks, or waterproof gear. As far as the actual spray skirt: good item to make your float a little more comfortable.

I think it's nice to have the zipper in general. Because you have a lot easier access to your cockpit, or can open it just a cool off if it's hot out. But with heavy rain I've gotten soaked twice through the zipper where my brother has just a little skirt and doesn't get wet at all. It doesn't have enough of a support to keep the water from pooling no matter how tight I have the suspenders. I wish I had gotten a different model than this one.

Just got this about 2 weeks ago. Fits the kayak nice and snug. The zipper allowed me to get in it while already attached to the kayak although this was using a kayak launch and I had to squeeze myself into it. Had I been entering the kayak while it was in the water - no way. Only used it once , just wanted to see how it was. As with any skirt the only thing I don’t like is the condensation that you get. The product seems to be quality only time will tell. I also bought the Seal spray deck skirt( a half skirt) this is what I’ll probably use, with dry top and bottoms , until the weather gets really cold. All in all happy to have this brand.

horray!!! this splash cover fits and I picked it on my first try.!!! any way it is very hard to read the sizing chart to get the right size, but I trusted the numbers and it is the right one! this is a 7.0 which is far away from those 2.5,s and 2.0,s but it fits my old town vapor 10 like a glove! very nice stiching with no loose ends or peeling stiching.the zipper down the middle of the cover is long enough to allow easy entry and standing up.i have a leaning post with outriggers because I like to stand and cast my line. the cover has glued tape over all the seams for waterproofing and the cover it self is heavy nylon and very durable.perfect for me.i am packing to go to the lake.good fishing every one!

Fits snuggly on my Perception Rhythm and around my upper torso. The dual zipper allows for convenient access to reach down into the cockpit and permits me to leave the skirt on the kayak and step out of it. This is handy since the skirt is a challenge (tight) to fit to the cockpit while wearing it. Very happy with this product!
