Mark, thanks for your reply. "I would say that you can get a neoprene skirt to work with a seasock. It is easier to have it stay on if the bungee in the skirt is exposed (not in a nylon tube)." Jim at Pygmy Boats also thinks this: "The sewn on bungee actually has a good chance of working with the sea sock. The problem is most common when the bungee is run through a folded over tunnel. The folded over neoprene is what really prevents the skirt from gripping with the sea sock. The sewn on bungee is a lot less material to go around the coaming." I suppose whatever arrangement is adopted needs a good implosion testing. I'll get around to trying it in due course.
