Additional Information
Some of these Large and Medium covers are actually the same size, others are not. If your Chinook kayak is much older, circa late 1980s to early 1990s, or your old hatch cover is marked L, this is your best bet. If your kayak is not a Chinook, or made in the mid-to-late 1990s use the Perception Medium Neoprene Hatch Cover. The Classic Large Neoprene Hatch Covers with the heavy duty rubber rand and logo are discontinued. Note: This hatch cover may come marked: Chinook, Aquaterra, or Large.
