Installation of the aluminum stringer
After installation of the floorboards, put the stringers in the sides of the floor.
To make the installation of the stringers easier
we recommended putting
an oar under the bottom
of the boat. This lifts up the floorboards to have
easier access to put the stringers on the sides of the floor.
3.6 hiGh pressure inflaTable floorboard dwf
BUSH has two types of inflatable floorboards:
Type A:
This is a flat inflatable floor without any deadrise.
Type AK:
Models 3D-V. This is arcuated inflatable floorboard with a deadrise.
The types of inflatable floors is NOT interchangeable.
Inflate the boat to the half of full pressure.
•
Unfold and stretch out the floor onto the bottom of the boat sticking it
•
well under the half-inflated tubes and against the transom. The valve
must be face up.
Inflate the boat.
•
Close the valves by putting the caps on and turning them to the right.
•
Push the sides of the floorboard under the tubes as far as possible
•
Then fully inflate the inflatable floorboard.
•
If you fully inflate the air deck, it will push itself underneath the tube and
•
it will stay there tight in its place.
Oar
3.7 seaTs
If your boat is equipped with seats and a “seat rails” system on the tubes,
you can install the seat bench as in the following drawing. You must install
the seat after fully inflating the boat.
The seat rails (c) are connected to the inner sides of inflatable tubes (d) of
your boat. The seat holders (b) are connected to the lower side of the seats.
Insert the seat rails c into the holes a of your seat holders on the both sides
of the boats equally and move the seat to the proper position.
CAUTION:
NEVER
use the seats for lifting your boat or as handles.
The seat holders are breakable.
3.8 rowinG equipmenT
BUSH boats come as standard with oars, rowlocks, and a rowing seat. En
-
sure seat is properly installed. To install the oars in the oarlocks, put the oars
over the rowlocks pins. To prevent loss of the oars, be sure to put the cap on
the rowlock. If the oars are not in use, put the oars in the clips on the sides
of the boat.
CAUTION:
DO NOT
use the oars as levers: they are breakable!
WARNING:
Local water conditions must be taken into account be-
fore operating boat with oars or a small outboard. Boat power may
not be strong enough to overcome currents in tidal inlets, open seas,
small channels or shallows of shoal water regions.
