Used Dagger Atom Spray Skirt

Post by Bruce Farrenkopf »

Hello Cboaters,

Just picked up a Dagger Atom and I need a spray skirt for it.
Does anyone have a spray skirt for this boat that they are willing to sell for a fair price? Will pay for shipping.

P.S. I had an Atom years ago and gave it up. Have regretted it since. It will be good to get back into one again :D .

SYOTRiver,
Bruce

If you can't find one, contact Skirtworks, they can make you one. I have an Atom skirt from them, so they have definitely made them before. You may have to send them a tracing of the cockpit if they don't still have it on file. You'll have all kinds of other custom options also.

I have another custom skirt from them for my creek boat, and I can highly recommend them. Excellent product.

Its not about the approach. Its about control in the hole.

I haven't had much luck trying to shake down a used Atom skirt. Hopefully you'll fare better.

That said, I had a great experience ordering a custom Remix skirt from Snapdragon. They do Atom Skirts as well. Funny how the price pain of buying new evaporates when you actually start using the well-designed gear.

Have fun in the Atom! Such a fun boat...

Busterblue,
I have contacted Snapdragon and it sounds promising.

Hi Bruce. I have a Snapdragon C1 spray skirt that is made for a Cascade/Atom that I would be willing to sell. I live in Sacramento. I sent you an email.

Bruce, did SnapDragon get bcak to you? What did you end up going with?

John, I'd be interested in that skirt if it's still available.

Just got my Atom!

I just received a custom deck from Snapdragon. I sent them a paper template of my cockpit. It fits perfectly, but the tower is much too long for my taste, coming up nearly to my armpits. Easy to fix with scissors. :) Somewhat expensive, but I would do it again. Go through Davey Hearn so that he can get a cut.

Hello Bob and Andy,
I just received my Snapdragon skirt for the Atom and it fits both the boat and me very well. Worked out great. I bought it through California Canoe and Kayak out here in Sacramento, CA. Good outfit.
P.S. The airbags and new drain plug I needed to outfit the Atom I have ordered through Nantahala Outdoor Center (to distribute the wealth :D ).
SYOTRiver,
Bruce
