After several years of use, it continues to work. Note that I do not use it as the sole cockpit cover for transport on the roof of my truck, I have an additional top cover that secures around the hull, but between those two covers, the cockpit (and what I have it it) seems to keep everything dry. Review: Was for a birthday present - Fit great. Nice that its the name brand and not a china brand. Probably made in china, but still ## Features - Keeps water & unwanted critters out of your kayak - P7 size fits Perception Expression 11. 5 or other kayak cockpits measuring 34-36" (length) x 18-20" (width) - Constructed of durable urethane-coated nylon oxford - Sticky edging grips the cockpit rim tightly and adds extra durability - Not Intended for car top transportation - Compatible with many kayak brands - see size chart and match to the dimensions of your kayak's cockpit ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07JGB3P7H | | Best Sellers Rank | #179,690 in Sports & Outdoors ( See Top 100 in Sports & Outdoors ) #559 in Kayak Accessories | | Brand | Perception | | Brand Name | Perception | | Cockpit Size | 35 inches | | Cockpit size | 35 inches | | Color | Grey | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 661 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00729282111463 | | Included Components | Cockpit Cover | | Item Type Name | kayak cockpit cover | | Item Weight | 8.32 ounces | | Manufacturer | Confluence Accessories | | Manufacturer Part Number | 8080055 | | Material | Nylon | | Material Type | Nylon | | Model Name | TrueFit | | Model Number | 8080055 | | Number of Items | 1 | | UPC | 729282111463 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Warranty Description | 1 Year Warranty | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Perception - **Cockpit size:** 35 inches - **Color:** Grey - **Item Weight:** 8.32 ounces - **Material:** Nylon ## Images ![Perception TrueFit Kayak Cockpit Cover - for Sit Inside Kayaks - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51dPpEKQ6oL.jpg) ![Perception TrueFit Kayak Cockpit Cover - for Sit Inside Kayaks - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81Sp81pXC9L.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: The note says not intended for cartop transportation, but that is one of the situations when I’d want to keep rain out. Please explain?** A: From the photo I saw from a Purchaser, it looked like a very snug fit. While I have used a cover to transport my other kayak 14' it was possibly a bit thicker, Seal's brand. However, I intend if needed to use this cover for my Swifty 9.5 to travel. While in an extremely heavy downpour, it's possible the weight of the water could make the cover buckle inward and come off but I never had that happen with my other cover. As for it coming off while traveling, I just made sure to PUT YOUR TIE DOWN STRAP THROUGH THE FRONT LOOP HANDLE of the cockpit cover and if it should come off while traveling, you will not lose it! I have to transport my kayaks facing upwards because I use foam blocks on car installed roof racks. I never had any problem transporting my other 14' yak with a cover on it from up north to FL and back and yes it did see rain. (The tighter the fit, the water should just roll off.) Mostly it will be to keep critters out but I will use it to car top as needed. Ordering my cover now. **Q: I have a older swifty 3.1 any idea what size would fit correctly?** A: There have been several variations of the Swifty 9.5 since it's release. Size P13 for a cockpit measuring of 56 x 23 inches and P9 for a cockpit measuring 43.5 x 22 inches. Measuring the cockpit and then referencing the fit chart is recommended to guarantee a good fit. **Q: Does this fit a perception sound 9.5?** A: Yes. Size P13 fits the Perception Sound 9.5. **Q: Would this be good to protect my kayak during transport on top of my truck ?** A: I think so. I haven't used it for that myself but it fits very snug. I would be surprised if it didn't work well for transport protection. I asked my husband for you as well and he agrees it will work. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fits and works as described. *by T***B on June 20, 2026* Fits as promised and works well.
