Overview
This replacement coaming is made for Alpacka Raft whitewater spray decks and is intended for restoring a proper fit on compatible setups. The 98-inch piece is cut to fit all 2017 and later whitewater spray decks, while earlier decks require trimming to the recommended length for the specific model. It includes an aluminum ferrule in one end and is best suited for owners maintaining or updating an existing deck rather than outfitting a new system. Careful measuring is important before cutting, since the fit varies by spray deck model and year.

- This is a replacement coaming for Alpacka Raft Whitewater Spray Decks, so it is intended for compatibility with that system rather than as a standalone component.
- The 98-inch version is already cut to fit all 2017 and later whitewater spray decks, but earlier spray decks require trimming to the recommended length before use.
- Fit depends on the specific spray deck model and year, so measuring carefully before cutting is necessary to avoid an incorrect fit.
