: Since I am going to go with an Ocean style cockpit, any suggestions on the
: size? I did a quick look and I didn't see anyone offering spray skirts but
: I am sure they are out there. I just don't know where to look. I have seen
: 16" x 20" size mentioned several times. I have seen what looks
: like a keyhole(?) but is much smaller in Ross's Kayak Foundary. No need to
: reinvent the wheel. So whats standard?

No such thing as "standard" or there would be spray skirts available. I've got one that's about 16" x 20" and one that's round think about 17" diameter, the round one is easier to figure out :)
