Here are some frequently asked questions about the Wilderness Systems Sunshield:

Q: I wanted to know if this is a good alternative to a spray skirt?

A: Spray skirts are primarily designed to keep the inside of your kayak dry. They have a waist tunnel that creates a seal around your torso and a full deck that covers the entire cockpit to prevent water from entering. The Sunshield provides coverage over the front portion of the cockpit and is a great option for blocking small amounts of spray, drips, wind, and UV rays during light to moderate paddling conditions. It also allows you to enter and exit your kayak freely without the restrictions of a spray skirt. However, it is not designed to prevent large amounts of water from entering your kayak in heavy to extreme conditions or in the event of capsizing.

Q: Will this fit an Equinox 10.4 kayak?

A: The Sunshield is fairly universal and works great for cockpits 45 inches and longer. On cockpits shorter than 45 inches, the material may overlap the seating area and need to be pushed forward to create more room. However, this may cause the shield to bunch up, making it less effective during harsh water conditions.

Q: I have a Pelican Mustang 100x, and I'm looking for a sun shield. Will it fit on my kayak? What size should I get?

A: The Sunshield should fit your kayak. If it doesn't quite fit, my apologies, as I do not own a Pelican Mustang 100x. However, if you can fit it on your kayak, it works really well and can block out some waves too. You should get the W12 size.

Q: Will this fit a Wilderness Pamlico 13.5 setup for a single paddler?

A: Yes. The Sunshield will fit on the cockpit of the Pamlico 13.5.
