Overview
This replacement spray skirt is made for whitewater decked packrafts, giving paddlers a way to keep older and current models ready for river use. It is offered in sizes to match different cockpit and chest measurements, including a standard 98-inch version, an XL version with a larger tunnel, and a 92-inch version for 2016 and earlier Alpacka Series and Fjord Explorer models. The standard skirt uses 1-inch elastic webbing suspenders to help hold the tunnel in place, and the fit notes are important for choosing the correct option. At 7.5 oz / 210 g, it stays light, but buyers should verify sizing carefully before ordering.

Considerations & Trade-offs
- Sizing matters: the standard and XL versions are both tied to specific chest-size ranges, so confirming fit before ordering is important.
- Compatibility is model-specific: 98-inch skirts fit 2017-and-later single-person packrafts with whitewater decks, while 92-inch skirts are for 2016-and-earlier Alpacka Series and Fjord Explorer models.
- Older models are still supported, but the 2016-and-earlier skirts no longer use the original velcro attachments, which may be a change from the setup on those boats.
- This is a replacement spray skirt for whitewater decked models, so it is not a universal accessory across all packrafts.
