SPRAY DECK OPTIONS

Below you will find a list of our standard options, but keep in mind options are really only limited to your imagination.  We have built child cockpits with no-see-um-nets, dog hatches with windows, sail and fishing rigging, camera mounts and a wide variety of other specialty items.

Tandem Two-Piece

A two or three piece Spray Deck allows you to remove a portion of deck on warm days for lounging, fishing and general freedom of movement. They keep your gear out of sight and protected from direct sun light while keeping you cooler.  We position the joints over thwarts for additional stability. Any section can be unlaced from one side and by turning the canoe on its side creates quick emergency shelter.

Portage Cargo Hatch

Running most of the distance between the fore and aft cockpits, this cargo hatch is large enough to expose your carrying yoke so you do not need to remove the deck to portage. The extra large opening also gives you greater access to your gear.

40SP-13
Additional Paddle Pocket

In the interest of safety and convenience a second paddle pocket can be added. This ensures the bow and stern paddler will have immediate access to a replacement paddle. Please specify preferred location and paddle length.

40SP-06
Waterproof Map Case

We provide you with a 10” X 14” Seal Line Water Proof Map Case and four deck top tie-down points. Standard placement is within easy reach of the stern paddler.

40SP-07
- with Anchors

 

Map Case Anchors only

Provide us with the size and preferred location of your map case and we will place four deck top tie-down points to anchor it.

40SP-11
Deck Top Anchoring Strip
- 17"

Provides several solid anchoring points for cameras, binoculars, bags, safety equipment or lunch. The center has one-inch webbing and a side release buckle for larger items. A daisy chain lets you quickly secure gear using a carabineer. Standard placement is within easy reach of the bow or stern paddler. Please specify preferred location and orientation.

40SP-15
Additional Cargo Hatch

Popular for freighter canoes, this option gives you more access to gear over larger deck areas. An additional Cargo hatch can also be rolled open to create an area for your dog or child.

40SP-05
Additional Cockpit

For a third passenger (kids or a dog) or when you want to paddle your tandem boat solo you may want to add a center cockpit in just the right spot. They can also be used to access gear. When not in use you may want to cover them with a Zippered Cockpit Cover.

40SP-04
Light Weight Fabric 40SP-01p

50% lighter and 20% less volume, great for races like the Yukon Quest or the weight conscious solo paddler. We use High Tenacity, Military Spec 420 Pack Cloth sealed with a one-ounce urethane coating that will not peel or crack. It is available in red or black, and due cost a 15% surcharge on the deck only is applied. (not applied to additional options)

Reversible Bow Cockpit -
2 way
40SP-24

This option lets you paddle your boat tandem or solo. To do this we install a two-way cockpit at the bow seat. This allows you to turn yourself around in the bow seat and use it as your stern seat. You may want to install a zippered cockpit in the stern to eliminate water pooling in the unused cockpit. (See Below)

Cockpit Cover – Zippered

A Zippered Cockpit Cover keeps the water from pooling into the unused cockpit(s) when solo paddling your tandem boat. Some customers choose to cover both cockpits during transporting and storage.

40SP-14
Shoulder Strap – each

A Shoulder strap keeps the cockpit skirting in a stable location around your chest and eliminates the chance of water pooling around the skirt. Often used by white water play-boaters for running long stretches of rapids, surfing and playing in holes.
