Special information about the nortik CityRaft
Seat:
The seat is already installed in the boat and is knotted, this knotting can be varied individually
stronger or weaker.
Finn:
The CityRaft is equipped with a permanent fin, the further you sit in the back of the raft (on
the seat), the better the fin dips into the water and provides more directional stability. The
further you move the weight forward, the more the fin comes out of the water and the more
manoeuvrability you achieve.
Disassembly:
Open the large filling valve to let the air out. The CityRaft is rolled up from behind over the
fin. Always roll it in the direction of the valve so that the air is pressed out. It is best to place
the filling bag around the rolled CityRaft and then push it into the packing bag.
Please make sure that the filling valve and the fin are not kinked!
Special information about the nortik Expedition Rafts
Integrated bags:
On both sides of the raft there are integrated bags with
a volume of 70l each inside the air tubes. These can be
used to stow luggage, improve the centre of gravity and
reduce the wind's impact surface. They also serve as
additional floats.
Please make sure to
fill these bags BEFORE inflating
the raft
and close the zippers tightly. The bags are also
unloaded when the raft is empty, as the counterpressure
of the air tubes would otherwise cause the bags to turn outwards.
