Spraydecks Size Guide
Nylon decks are marked with N sizes and neoprene are maked with R sizes.
Because nylon Spraydecks do not offer the same stretch as neoprene ones, touring boats with exceptionally large cockpits will usually need a larger size nylon deck than a neoprene one. A size 6 cockpit will often take a size 5 or 6 deck in neoprene.
