How do you determine the correct size for a kayak cockpit cover?

Google "Harmony Cockpit Cover Fit Guide" You will see a drop-down menu that lists all kayak brands and then another drop-down listing each model within the brand. That's how I figured this out for my Swifty 9.5 (size 44/21). Hope this helps.

Get a 2X4 the length of your kayak's width. Cut multiple slots in it and run the straps through. More slots you cut more loops you can make. Make the farthest slots the width of your kayak. The two slots near center where straps exit should be 5 inch apart. Shopped HomeDepot for something ready made. Shelving ,grills. Don't trust those wire weldings. Keep the strap around kayak loosely so you can get the straps on and off easily.I received my hoist this week. Install is a cinch if you follow youtube video for a competitor brand. The ropes are low quality. Easily frayed. Get a 2X4 the length of your kayak's width. Cut multiple slots in it and run the straps through. More slots you cut more loops you can make.

It refers to the length and width of the cockpit of your kayak; however when I choose what I thought was the correct size it still wouldn't fit. It was too small.

Malone's site has a fit guide for cars. http://www.maloneautoracks.com/kayak-carriers.php I had mine on square bars but now have oval bars so I'll be modifying them to fit.

I would go with a custom one then you know it will fit, just email us back the size, when you purchase the cover. Thanks Joe

Harmony cockpit sizes are the length and width of the cockpit opening. If your cockpit opening is 32 inches long and 18 inches wide then order a 32/18 cover. If the width or length does not conform to the Harmony published sizes, order the next size up. Peter

You need to measure the outside diameter of the objective with a caliper, then check the size chart for the right cover.Using a ruler is not exact enough. The difference between cap sizes is measured in hundredths of an inch

Should be more than adequate. I have a hobie outback that is little over 12' and if any problem it is too big. It is not really moisture proof but keeps dirt and debris off. Moisture obviously not an issue for a kayak.

I sold the Kayak before I mounted the holder. I would have used a bit the same size as the outside Dia, making sure I drilled at the same angle as the mounting flange.

Use a ruler or tape-measure to find your dimensions.Compare your dimensions with the ones listed for the 'cover'.I happen to love mine!

Honestly I don't know. I know I read a ton of reviews to find one that actually had the same kayak I had and went with that review to buy this cover. My kayaks actual cockpit dimensions that I took were 23" wide. I'll tell you this cover fits perfectly that way. The length was approx. 42" and this cover does have a little extra material but an elastic adjustable pull cord for slack. There is not that much extra though. Sorry I can't be of more help. But my first guess would be it would be to small for you.

I tried to measure mine while on the boat and I ordered one that was too short. Thank goodness that the dealer that Amazon hooked me up with, Bryan Outboard Inc, exchanged it for just the price of shipping. I highly recommend taking it out of the boat, since you will have to anyway, and measure it and order the correct length the first time.

From what I have seen, the seat on that kayak is set up the same as this one. Two straps clipped to the front of it and two clipped behind it. It should fit fine.

My Kayak is 12' 3" and there is about 8" of fabric left. It should fit if it is not much over 13'. The cover is plenty wide and is really made well. We are very pleased with this cover.

I have no idea how to use the sizing chart. I just got on the companies website and put in my kayak brand and it told me which one to get.

Go to the Seals website. There you will find a chart with just about every kayak ever manufactured and the appropriate size spray deck for that boat.
