Cleaning and Storage
When the kayak is not being used, it is recommended
that you store it in its carrying bag.
Clean the kayak completely with a mild soap and fresh
water. NEVER USE PETROLEUM BASED PRODUCTS OR
SOLVENTS FOR CLEANING.
Kayak should be completely dry and remain dry while
stored.
Roll the kayak loosely and place in the vented storage
bag.
Store in a cool, dry location. Do not store kayak directly
on concrete surface. Place mothballs around stored
inflatable to keep mice and insects away.
NEVER use high pressure washing equipment such as a
“pressure washer” to clean the kayak. This will damage
the product beyond repair and void its warranty.
When storing it in a cold area, allow kayak to warm up to
room temperature before inflating.
Troubleshooting
Air chamber(s) won’t hold air:
•
Check Boston valve body and cap to make sure they are
threaded squarely and the seals are properly seated.
•
Check for holes in bladder following the procedures in
the “Repair” section.
