Seals Adventurer Nylon Sprayskirt for Kayaks

I have several of these spray skirts for all of my different kayaks and they are awesome. If you need a spray skirt just to keep the splashes of water out of your kayak or just to keep your legs from getting fried in the sun, this is the skirt. It will work for rolling but a neoprene skirt would be much better. Some of mine are more than 5 years old and still water tight.

These are such a b**ch to put onto your kayak. You will through all five stages of grief for the first 20 times you put these things on. But once they’re on, they’re not coming off unless you want them to, by pulling the strap, which is large and easy to pull. Safety inadvertently tested by a friend who flipped in a glacial lake, she was able to eject immediately. Suspenders can be removed and you can wear as a cute tube top. Waterproof. Would buy again.

Was able to match my older Necky up on their website sizing chart. Seems very well made and fits perfectly.

I have an old town heron 9XT the seal skirt 4.2 fits. Only used it on the lake but I works great! I've played out on the big waves and it keeps out the water. The one problem is it's just a draw string around the waste so the water comes in my suggestion is to get a neoprene sleeve that you could cover the loose opening around the waste.

Package was ripped but think it is fine—it’s a gift for my son so I don’t even know how to use it!

Easy to put on the boat and provides a very nice seal. I think this is a very good entry level spray skirt.

Took it kayaking off Stonington ME, with three foot seas. I stayed nice and dry and took on no water in my cockpit. Fit is a little tight and required help from a buddy sealing to cockpit, but I suspect that that would have happened with any other skirt.

The elastic band around the circumference of the skirt has about a plum sized knot at the very back that makes it VERY difficult to get it to tuck under the lip of my Jackson Karma. Considering the back is the hardest part to adjust when you are paddling, this is a serious design flaw. I end up having to fix it after almost every rapid, would not recommend for above a class II, otherwise you're going to swamp.
