I’m looking for a new Snapdragon “Glacier Trek” spray skirt (large deck; medium tube). Any suggestions on dealers in Puget Sound that might carry this skirt? I’ve searched and am still looking.

Cheers,

Mac

I don’t know about Puget Sound but I goggled snapdragon (the model you specified) and saw multiple sites that advertised availability.

Have you tried Snapdragon directly? I think they are in the Seattle area.

Good luck,

Marianne

I'd suggest Alder Creek Kayak and Canoe in Portland. They always carried Snapdragron in the past, no sales tax, and very quick shipping time when I've ordered from them in the last year.

Tell them I sent you.

Yes, I checked on Snapdragon’s site. The don’t sell directly. Like other dealer sites so far, the only skirts I found are not the size Penny needs (it’s for her).

No snapdragon skirts at Aldercreek.

According to John Halsey who spoke to Snapdragon’s owner some time ago, they closed their business due to the impact of the pandemic. He apparently said they “might” open back up some time in the future.

Is there any other skirt brand that compares to Snapdragon. I’ve never liked “Seals” gear and they don’t appear to make a model that has a nylon tube like the Snapdragon “Glacier Trek” model that we are looking for.

FYI - Matt at Alder Creek told me their inventory was NOT correct and they do NOT have the skirt wa are looking for. So, I’m still looking for it.
