Excuse the cross post, for those on both lists:
    I'm looking for a neoprene skirt that has a wide stretch BEHIND the seat. 
I have a boat in which the seat is well forward of the rear cockpit rim and 
getting the Snap Dragon skirt on is a huge PIA. Does anyone know of a large 
skirt with that kind of space that is not nylon?

Joan,

Snap Dragon will make a custom spray skirt for you.  The one they made for me
about 8 years ago did not cost any extra.  I have lost Rich's card, so you may
have to go to your local kayak dealer to find out how to contact him directly.

Regards,

Dave Carlson

Thanks to all who have responded to my question. I have several new leads. 
What I was looking for was an off the rack skirt so that it is returnable if 
I find it isn't working. I have this fear of mismeasuring things and finding 
out it won't fit in the end. It is like cutting wall paper, just right is 
always too small.
