I was pummeled a few times in my Nordkapp Ocean Cockpit and took on a lot of > water, even with a top-end Snapdragon skirt. The sewed-on bungee never came > loose, but I got a lot more water penetrating than I wanted or liked. It may help to put the upper part of the tube from your spray skirt under your waterproof top- then your PFD over that. Most of the water entering your boat comes down the tube-- if you don't have leaks that is. If you have a good neck gasket that should help with the water down the back and into the boat problem. *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
