Key benefits Reliable water protection: fits over standard round hatches to reduce water ingress and keep the hatch area watertight during paddling and wet conditions. Secure, accessible storage: integrated red waterproof pocket provides a dry place for small essentials; pocket is removable for flexible use and easy cleaning. Built to last: molded from PVC and ABS for impact resistance and long-term shape retention; resists deformation and cracking under normal use. Quick installation and removal: user-friendly design lets you fit or remove the cover without tools, saving time on the water. Features and specifications Outer diameter: approximately 20 cm (7.87 in) Inner diameter: approximately 16.6 cm (6.53 in) Materials: durable PVC and ABS construction Integrated waterproof pocket: red, securely holds small items, removable for convenience Compatibility: designed for most kayaks and small boats with hatch openings in the specified diameter range Why this solves common problems Prevents water entering storage compartments and reduces the chance of soaked gear. Protects hatch rims and edges from impact and wear, prolonging hatch life. Keeps essential items (phone in a dry bag, keys, small first-aid items) organized and accessible without rummaging in the main compartment. Typical use scenarios Day paddling: covers a common hatch to keep snacks, maps, and small electronics dry while you paddle on lakes or calm rivers. Fishing trips: protects tackle, lures, and personal items from splashes and sudden weather changes while you cast from the kayak. Touring or transport: quick to install before launching or during a break; the removable pocket can be taken ashore for safe storage of valuables. Practical notes Measure your hatch to confirm compatibility with the stated inner and outer diameters before purchase. The removable pocket detaches for washing or when you prefer a plain cover. Simple, tool-free fit makes this a practical upgrade for regular paddlers who want added protection and convenient storage.
