Betsie Bay boats have an odd-sized cockpit that's in-between a traditional "ocean" size and a keyhole. Palm is the brand we used, though I don't know for certain if they're still making them. Personally, I prefer an "akuilisaq" to a sprays skirt, as it gives you much more freedom of movement. Mine is a Brooks, but I think they either went out of business or just stopped making kayaking products.
