Product Description

Spray decks are stocked to suit our popular kayak brands - Mirage, Tiderace, CD Storm and Nadgee Sea Kayaks and Reed Chillcheater standard sizes Keyhole A,B & C, LV, Ocean B, Big Touring and Keyhole Plastic - see below for size guide. This listing is for standard Reed Chillcheater Keyhole A, B, C sizes.

The size guide and examples below are a guide - if your cockpit is at the top of the range for both length & width it will not stretch that far - a custom spraydeck may be the better option. Also it is better of your cockpit is in proportion to the shape of these keyhole shapes.

Please call or email for advice!

Aquatherm Spray Deck with adjustable waist is a lightweight revolutionary design. Ideal for slalom, sea kayaking, polo, touring and recreational use. The waist is adjustable using the draw cord waistband.

The fabric’s outer surface is 20 times more abrasion resistant than neoprene. Aquatherm deck fabric has 360 degree stretch, instant memory return, and has 80% less volume and weight compared with traditional neoprene products without compromising performance. It is comfortable, durable and supple, UV stable, waterproof and fast drying. A popular choice for competition disciplines: slalom, polo, surf, sprint / marathon and river racing as well as for sea kayaking / touring and recreational use. This is a popular option for those who may be sensitive to neoprene.

For rodeo, whitewater, extreme conditions, and for practising rescues, we recommend our neoprene decks.

If you require a custom fit (template), please go to our Aquatherm Spray Deck - adjustable waist (Custom) page. If you want Ocean A, B or Big Touring contact us for availability - we can order in.

Reed Chillcheater standard sizes are based on a keyhole (teardrop) shape, like in the size guide. If your kayak has more of an oval shape (Raiders, Stellar)these keyholes will not fit as the circumference is much greater.
Seat position  is also a factor - designed for sitting position/seatback  several cm in from rear of coaming.

Note:
Keyhole C is too small for the Seabird Designs Discovery - we now stock decks specifically for a range of Seabird Designs Sea Kayaks.
Keyhole B does not actually fit the NDK Explorer

  S/M LG/XLG XXL
Your waist in inches up to 36" Up to 42" Up to 50"
Your waist in cm up to 91.5cm Up to106cm Up to 122cm*

  1. Reed spraydeck 4 Star Review

    Posted by on 15th Mar 2023

    The range of sizes is good, allowing for a snug fit.
    I chose a Reed deck to allow for more comfortable movement when paddling a sea kayak and for the considerable saving in weight.


  2. Super fit 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 5th Oct 2020

    As other reviews have stated, light weight, fits tight as a drum, does not sag therefore no pooling, yet still easy to release.
    All seams are sealed and with the double shock cord for the coaming, completely water proof !


  3. Fits tight as a drum on my Nadgee Solo 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 29th Jul 2016

    I'm very pleased with this spray deck. Fits my Nadgee Solo perfectly. Well made and completely waterproof. No pooling of water and its is easy to fit and remove.


  4. Good Fit for a Prijon Proteus 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 11th May 2016

    Reasonable effort required to stretch onto the cockpit rim, which results in a drum like area in front, so no water pooling. Despite how tight it looks it is easy to release.
    About a quarter of the bulk and weight of my other three different brand skirts.


  5. Mirage 19 Spray Deck 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 17th Jan 2015

    This works amazingly well, can paddle for hours without getting a drop of water in the kayak.


  6. Nadgee Solo spraydeck 4 Star Review

    Posted by on 23rd Jul 2014

    The Chillcheater deck for my Nadgee does what spray decks do: keep water out of the boat! Nice and light and sealed seams mean it's pretty watertight although while I've yet to have it pop in surf, it hangs a little loosely. Overall, pretty happy!
