DO I STILL HAVE TO SEND IN MEASUREMENTS FOR MY DECK IF THE BOAT IS A STANDARD MODEL?
Sometimes the same boat models have slightly different cockpit sizes so to make sure we get your order right it is always advisable to send in your measurements.
HOW DO I GO ABOUT MEASURING AND ORDERING MY SPRAY DECKS
To ensure a successful purchase please use this checklist, and submit with your order. For online orders, please submit this information on the measurement chart located next to each deck product : Your cockpit type (shape) Your cockpit material (plastic or glass fibre) The length of your cockpit (A to B) The width of your cockpit (C to D, measured to the outer edge of the cockpit rim Your waist tube selection (S, M, L, XL) or adjustable waist (S/M, L/XL, XXL) Any additional features (bale hole - map rings) Any special features (Aquatherm Vest, Competition Top Styles, non-standard seat position).
Perfect fit (for my Taran 16); sheds water as it should; easy to fit and remove. Light, well priced (I thought), delivered promptly. Nothing more to say!
After searching around for a spray deck to fit an old non standard sea boat I contacted Reed who guided me to and supplied one that fitted perfectly. Great personal service and a great deck.
I ordered it for a long distance Marathon in Estonia, the Vohandu Marathon. Despite the freezing weather it kept me warm and confortable even after nearly 8 hours of paddling!
After a few niggles with the product, Reed were super helpful and keen to rectify. Following a kind discussion over the phone and a few pointers from their team, think the problem will resolve. If I knew how, I would happily redact my previous negative review titled 'Not easy to apply and comes away from canoe'
Probably my 6th set of this fantastic kit. I've used these fleeces for paddling and have also worn them for just chilling during the winter. I also use the tops for winter cycling.
They're top quality products and so comfortable.
Fits as it should. Keeps the weather & Beasties out. With a bungee it can be used as an emergency hatch cover too !! although Reeds do sell Emergency hatch covers. The sun is out too which is nice. I might walk along the beach later.
