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.
We can not stress enough the importance of the sea sock.
It is your key safety item in a capsize to prevent flooding
your kayak; it also prevents sand and dirt getting in the
kayak.
tips on usage and Installation
The coloured Feathercraft label indicates inside or "right"
side of sock.
Center the seam on the rim of the sea sock with the
center point on the bow 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.
