Damage Free Guarantee

At Caney Fork Outdoors, we work with top-tier freight carriers across the country to ensure your kayak arrives quickly, safely, and ready for the water.

We’ve also partnered with a white-glove delivery service designed to greatly reduce the risk of shipping damage. Because of this enhanced delivery process, you will no longer be required to sign and physically inspect your kayak at delivery. This carrier maintains an exceptional 99.97% damage-free delivery rate, giving you added peace of mind from warehouse to doorstep.

In the rare event that damage does occur, Caney Fork Outdoors will take care of the issue as long as it is reported within 2 hours of delivery and clear photos are submitted via email. If the damage is cosmetic (such as light scratches or minor surface dents) and does not affect performance or structure, we will provide a repair kit when applicable. If you prefer a replacement for cosmetic issues, a 20% restocking fee may apply.

For clarity, “damage” refers to any condition that compromises the structural integrity of the kayak hull or would void the manufacturer’s warranty as confirmed with the vendor.

The Immersion Research Royale Rand is the toughest skirt IR builds. A tri-fin synthetic rubber rand grips the cockpit rim instead of a shock cord, so it stays sealed when a hole tries to rip it off. This is the skirt for steep creeks, big water, and long days on Tennessee rivers where a blown skirt ends the run.

The front casing is reinforced with an ultra-tough polymer top sheet chosen for tear strength and cut resistance. Behind it sits 4mm Supratex II neoprene across the deck and rear casing. Neoprene extends past the rand in an apron, so water sheds off the front instead of pooling at the seam.

Large silicone grip strips on the underside of the casing add implosion resistance and hold the skirt in place while you work it onto the rim. The Eagle Talon grab handle is grippy, highly visible, and keeps your hand from sliding off the end. A rand skirt takes more effort to put on than a bungee skirt. That is the trade for the seal.

Sizing

Deck Size: measure your cockpit rim

The accurate measurement is your kayak's cockpit rim circumference. Run a string or tape around the rim at its broadest point, mark where you started, then lay the string flat and measure it.

Deck Size Cockpit Circumference
Large 84" - 90"
X-Large 90" - 95"

If your boat lands near the end of a range, size up for easier on and off, size down for more implosion resistance. These ranges cover what about 95% of paddlers prefer. Cockpits under 84" or over 95" fall outside the two sizes we stock, so call us at (615) 696-7887 and we will sort it out.

Waist Size: start with your pants size

Use your normal pants waist size. If you do not know it, measure your waist with a soft tape and subtract 2 inches. That number is your tunnel size.

Tunnel Size Pants Waist Size
Small 28" - 30"
Medium 30" - 33"
Large 33" - 36"
X-Large 36" - 40"
XX-Large 40" - 44"
