FINDING YOUR SERIAL NUMBER

You can locate your kayaks’ serial number on the back deck of your kayak on 

the starboard deck (Figure 1). It is engraved into the deck and consists of 12 

alphanumeric digits (ie:YGD12500A616). Your serial number is also located in 

a secondary area in case of tampering. Please contact us for this secondary 

location if the need arises. It is recommended to add the serial number to 

your bill of purchase for your records
