GYMTOP 2.6m-6m Kayak Canoe Storage Dust Cover- Waterproof UV Sunblock Shield Protector for 7 Sizes Range Fishing Boat/Kayak/Canoe

These covers are working great for me. I use them to protect my kayaks from sun and rain by the river between uses. They have been doing a great job. In heavy rain, the water will pool in low spots on the cover and will not penetrate. I ordered a similar, less expensive cover from another brand and it is noticeably thinner.You will notice that the conversion for the sizes in feet in meters is incorrect. They used a factor of 3 feet per meter, which is close, but in some cases (for example an 11 ft/3.3 meter kayak) it could be off enough that one size would be correct in feet, and another in meters. I recommend that you determine your kayak size in meters, and order the cover in the correct size based on the measurement provided in meters. I suspect that the reason some reviews say the covers are large is due to basing the order on the measurements in feet.In my photos, the desert camouflage cover is the 3.1-3.5m/9.3-10.5ft size, and is on an 11 foot Emotion Stealth Angler sit-on-top kayak. The silver/gray cover is the 3.6-4m/10.8-12ft size on a 12 foot Wilderness Systems Pungo sit-inside kayak.I have only been using these for about two weeks, so I cannot yet speak to longevity. However, I am very pleased with them so far.

I like 95% of what I buy but I was NOT impressed by this. I purchased this for my kayak but it just FILLS with water when it rains - which makes sense, but it thoroughly unhelpful. It would be better if I turned it upside down, but then why would I cover the hull?? Seems it would be fine for a paddleboard but if for a kayak (especially a sit-inside type), it'd still need to be under some sort of roof if it rains. I also found that the drawstring loosens some and does NOT stay as tight as I would expect (likely due to the quality of the little closure spring piece) and due to the crinkliness of the borders of the cover, pretty big spiders still get in which was NOT COOL TO FIND.Looks like I should have bought the one that fully encloses and zips around the kayak, but I started with this because I figured it'd be easier for me to pull over it alone.Would be better if the open sit-inside space of your kayak is already covered, it is stored on its side (which I don't have room to do at the moment), or you have something that can prop up the cover from the seat area on the inside to keep the cover from dipping into the kayak and filling with rain.

We bought ine for a Hobie Mirage outback which is slightly over 12’ and a bit wider than the usual kayak. It fits great. A second fits a great on our double kayak, also a little over 12’

So far seems great. Bought 10 to 12 foot version for my 11 foot perception SUP kayak combo since it sits on the side of my boat at the marina. Elastic ends on both ends make it really easy to put on and secure

I have bought several kinds of covers like this for my yaks but these are the best. No zippers on big stretch plastic that does repel the water and keeps out the sun and very easy to pull over the kayak. Just get your size right when ordering. No fuss with these and they work

I have a 10' 4" kayak, so I knew this would be longer than I needed. It does what it says on the tin, as in it covers the kayak. However, the strap that tightens the cover down snapped out of place the very first time I tried to tighten it, and I couldn't get the string back out of the channel it's in to reconnect it. Still trying to figure out how to tighten the thing. However, it covers my kayak well and, I hope, will handle the outdoors. It's hanging under my upper deck, where I can easily get the kayak down, so I'm hoping it will do what it says. I really just need it to keep spiders and the rain out, and it should do that. It's not 5 stars only because of the strap issue. I'd recommend it - unless you live in New England. There's no way this thing is solid enough to handle a Nor'easter or even the winters along Lake Ontario. You'd need something much more heavy-duty for that. As I'm now in Tennessee, this should handle our mild winters just fine.

It fits my 10 foot kayak and it's waterproof, it also keeps the spiders out and critters, and it fits snug.

Item seems to be properly constructed for lightweight useage of maybe one or two seasons of use. As i live in SW Florida (Tampa Bay area) it will be a difficult task to last 3 years with our punishing sun and rain in the summers. On a side note be careful when pulling it on that it doesn't snag and tear possibly on hard edges like sawhorses or edges on the gunalls which my Kayak rests on. In this view the Kayak is upside down with the cover on top so that Live Oak Tree leaves and pollen don't stain the exterior underside as has previously occurred. The Kayak is Bonafide 127SS which is just a shade under 13ft with a 34" width. Its a little short on the sides but plenty long enough in my case.
