The Feathercraft Sea Sock
Made from high-quality coated nylon, the sea sock is a great
safety item. The top of the sock fits tightly around the cockpit
coaming rim. Contoured to fit along the seatback and bottom,
the “foot” is loose through the cockpit, creating a “pod”. The
paddler then sits in the sock. Legs and feet are not constricted.
The spray skirt fits as usual. In the event of a capsize, water will
only enter the sock, and not the whole boat. It’s also great
for keeping the inside of your kayak clean.
Tips on Usage and Installation
•
The shiny side of the fabric faces in towards the
kayak frame.
•
When facing the bow of the kayak, the Feathercraft label
should be on the right side.
•
The center seam on the up-side of the Sea Sock should be
centered on the bow point of the coaming.
•
Once the Sea Sock is in place, sit in the sock, and “burp”
it by lifting the edges, releasing trapped air that causes the
sock to billow up.
