Source for Spraydeck, different sizes?

George Roberts gave the advice to start planning the cockpit size by identifying available spraydeck dimensions.

Well, most often the cockpit holes are a bit wide for may taste: 17" on the Pygmy and CLC boats and some others. Then CLC North Bay has cockpit size 24" long x 15.5 wide, which wuold be a nice width, but a bit short for me. (I guess they sell spraycovers these dimensions...)

Mariner kayaks have cockpit sized 32.5"x15 son some boats. Perfect for me, but they do not only want to sell inside the US, too much trouble fiddling with export.

They talk nice about the "Snapdragon Sea Tour neo/nylon spraydeck".

Anyone know where spraycovers this size or close to this size may be bougth?
