Return to Seals Kayak Cockpit Seal Product Details.
Description: The Seals Kayak Cockpit Seal is a tear-resistant cockpit cover made with cargo cover material that features superior UV protection that provides more secure protection that the basic Seals Cockpit Cover. The hull strap security feature makes this cockpit cover suitable for use during kayak transport on your vehicle as it wraps around the hull of your kayak to secure the cover during transportation. Click the Fit Guide tab to determine the proper size.
ACK Review: The seals cockpit covers are great for storing your boat in a car port, garage or back yard. This will keep unwanted critters and dirt and dust out of your kayak till your ready to paddle again.

| Review: | Excellent product. A 4.2 is a great fit on a Swifty 9.5. A 5.2 is a good perimeter fit on an Old Town Dirigo 106, but there is too much fabric in the body. | ||||||||

| Review: | The product is what I needed, and performed flawlessly on a recent 2000 mile road trip. I can see that I will need to make a couple of minor modifications ( the front hook is plastic and will need to be replaced before I go out again) but it is what I wanted and I gained at least 2 mpg. | ||||||||

| Review: | I have 4 kayaks and have standardized on these. They are tough! They do not shred from wind while truck- topped, and critters have not figured them out yet, and there is no annoying stitching for a puddle of water to drip through. BTW to avoid those puddles, simply stretch a short bungee across the cockpit side to side before securing cockpit cover. | ||||||||

| Review: | We ordered 2 of these to keep critters out of our kayaks that we store outside our home as living on lake front property does not afford us with the storage that we would like. These cockpit covers do a great job and are high quality, the shipment was speedy and the customer service to help us with the cover size was great. There should be no hesitations in using this provider for all your cockpit seal products. We love the 2 we ordered. | ||||||||

| Review: | It's about time I bought this Cockpit Seal. I have had my Kayak for several years and every time I take it out I have to get the spiders out. I forgot to look under the seat once and got a big surprise in the middle of a lake. Now there are no more worries. The price was right, fast delivery, and ACK made selection a snap. There is even an installation video on the site so I had it on in no time. Thanks ACK, this is just what I needed. | ||||||||

| Review: | Cockpit Seal stood up to Hurricane Irene and Tropical Storm Lee! Was unable to remove kayaks from the top of my truck in time for either of these storms. Despite the driving rains from both storms, when I finally did get my kayaks down only about 2 cups of water managed to be wind driven under the SEALS Cockpit Seal. One of the best investments I have made for our Wilderness Systems Pamlico 100 kayaks. | ||||||||

| Review: | I have been lucky enough to move to an apartment complex on the banks of a Florida river with provisions to store my P&H sea kayak twenty paces from the water's edge. My storage area is under a clubhouse, which is good protection, but still outdoors. I was greatly concerned about unwanted paddling companions, especially since I launch in the dark every day half an hour before sunrise. The Seals Kayak Cockpit Seal has worked perfectly. No stowaways! I strongly recommend this device for any outdoor storage. | ||||||||

| Review: | This is a great cover for my Tsunami 145. We have the standard version for one of our boats also, and I like this version better because of the grip material on the rand. It is easier to put on, especially if the kayak is a bit wet when heading home. It worked great on a 200+ mile drive. Cost, shipping and service from ACK were great. | ||||||||

| Review: | I LOVE this cockpit cover. I had also bought another cockpit cover that was within a few dollars of the price for this one and there was absolutely no comparison. The other one was thin and cheap. It didn’t even bother to see if it fit the boat. This one is heavy duty and really nice. A great value. I paddled with my kayaking group this past week and others in the group commented on what a nice cockpit cover this was. A really great value without compromising the quality! I would highly recommend this item. | ||||||||

| Review: | This seal is easy to use, and stays put. It looks well made and durable. I haven't taken it on the road, yet, but the strap is long enough to around my kayak, and it has a loop to hold it all together, so I expect it will work just fine. I will buy another when I get a second kayak. Good value. | ||||||||

They also appear more durable. I also like the clip at the front and strap around the middle. I haven't taken them on the road yet, but I expect them to do just fine. | ||||||||

| Review: | Best and sturdiest cockpit cover that I have found. Never had to replace one. I get one for every kayak I buy that does not come with one. Wife insists on them being on her kayaks to keep out spiders, snakes, rodents, water, dust, and leafy debris so no suprises and the kayak is always ready to go without cleaning. | ||||||||

| Review: | Great fit. Ordered one in size 2.2 for my Oldtown Cayuga 130 and a size 5.0 for my husband's Oldtown Adventure 13 XL. Both fit well. And I just drove 11 hours each way for vacation at interstate speeds and the Seals didn't move at all - plus my fuel cost didn't jump higher. I am so happy. I highly recommend the Seals Kayak Cockpit Seal! | ||||||||

| Review: | Fits very well and stays on. Takes a couple of tries to learn the best technique to put it on. I've found that it is easiest to lay the kayak flat on the ground, and straddle it. Hook the cover around the lip behind the seat first, and then pull the front end of the cover toward the front and hook it under the front lip. Hold the front down with one hand, and use the other hand to wrap the sides of the cover around the lip, one side at a time, from back to front. | ||||||||

| Review: | This is a great cover except for one thing. Since it did not initially fit over the opening of my Perception Prodigy, I loosened the bungee cord that goes around the cover to keep it elastic. (there is an opening where they are attached to each other with a plastic tube. ) There is no way to prevent the ends of the cord from going into the hem of the cover. So now, I have to try to threat them back to the opening. There should be instructions and there should be a knob or some kind of fastening to allow temporary loosening of the cover until it has stretched sufficiently. Then one can tighten the cord again. | ||||||||

| Review: | The Seals Kayak Cockpit Seal is pretty much as expected. Seems to be well made and it has kept rain out. It's easy to remove. The main issue is that it's not easy for one person to put on, at least for our Old Town Adventurer kayak. The front of the cover hooks onto the kayak bungee cords. After that, it feels like three hands would be helpful.There's no other place to hook it, so I hold one side with each hand, gradually moving back, keeping tension, scooting on my knees on the dock while bending over. The kayak is floating and wants to move back with the pulling hands. This is uncomfortable. Eventually I get around to the back end, pulling against considerable tension in the bungee cord, and snap the back on. This is the best procedure I've worked out so far, but the cord sometimes still snaps out of the coaming and I have to start over. I'd guess this is not a problem peculiar to this brand and model, but inherent in the hatch configuration. It would be much easier to have 1 or 2 more hooks to attach to, but they would then be in the way while paddling and each would be another hole in the boat. We haven't tried to transport the kayak since getting the cover, so can't comment on how well it stays on. | ||||||||

| Review: | It fits snug as a bug on my Vapor 10. It keeps out water just like it should and it comes in handy when it starts to rain while coming home. My Kayak was completely dry inside, even after a storm! | ||||||||

| Review: | Just as advertised! I wish I had gotten this much sooner. A perfect fit, but not too tight to make it hard to get on and off. No more rainwater on my head when I take the boat off after a long drive! Thanks for the excellent recommendation by phone staff. | ||||||||

| Review: | A good way to keep critters and rain out my 'yak. Especially important when I have to put the boat on the car over night and it rains- water in the cockpit makes taking boat down very tricky! Also seems to help with wind-wobble when cartopping to the river. | ||||||||

| Review: | Very nice product! Keeps the critters and water out when I'm not in it. Fit, finish, and quality materials. Now off tho buy the Skirt. ACK gave me the best service I've ever received. And it all came in an "Ugly Box". Two thumbs up!! | ||||||||

| Review: | I store our kayaks on the foredeck of our boat and we are out on the water about half the time, summer and winter. Here in the Pacific Northwest we get a lot of rain and in winter some pretty good storms. The seal fits the Pamlico 100 perfectly and keeps the kayaks nice and dry, yet it is easy to remove. More than worth the money. | ||||||||

| Review: | This is a great seal. Fits my Wilderness Systems Pamlico 100 just fine. Stays tight even when rain water puddles up on cover. Strap that buckles around the width of kayak and the clip on the front of the seal has insured that the seal hasn't budged when driving at high speeds. Well constructed, good design. Well worth the money. | ||||||||

| Review: | I've stored the kayaks with the covers on and had them on my racks on my truck. They are heavy duty and attach well to my kayaks. We got a lot of rain that puddled up in the cover. The water didn't come in nor did the cover pull off. I'm very impressed with quality and would buy them again as well as recommend them to a friend. | ||||||||

| Review: | Keeps bugs and other pests out of my kayak in storage. I keep it right on my van and no water has got in it yet, it hasn't faded from sunlight, this is the best choice for a cover, goes on quick and easy, i give it 5 stars and recommend this cover above all others. | ||||||||

| Review: | Did what it's supposed to. Fit the cockpit. Kept the water and debris out when car topping. Also lets me pack misc. items in the boat. Love the extra security of the center strap that wraps around the boat. Also the clip on the one end to attach it to the deck cord. You will not lose this cover. | ||||||||

| Review: | Nice fit... stays on during transportation on the top of my SUV. Reduces the howling wind noise by a good margin and therefore drag on my vehicle and gas mileage should be slightly better. Keeps bugs out of it during storage as well. The trick to this is it's air tight unlike some of the others. This is what I wanted so that it would reduce drag while transporting it... BUT... it also means I have to wait a couple days after hanging my kayak up before putting the seal on or I will mildew the inside of my yak by trapping the moisture in. There are other products you could put on ASAP to just keep bugs out and let the yak breathe a little more so keep that in mind if you need something you put on as soon as you get home. | ||||||||
