Place the longer
stringer in the rear of
the boat between the
hull and the notched
edge of the floorboards
with the groove on the
stringer ready to accept
the edge of the floor-
board. Make sure there
is enough room for in-
stallation of the shorter
stringer and insert.
Once both stringers are
installed, repeat this
process for the opposite
side. The second set of
stringers should be eas-
ier to install with the first
set holding the boards
in alignment. Once fully
inflated the stringers
and floorboards will fit
firmly into place.
Aluminum Bench Seat
Transom Boats come
equipped with a bench
seat and two sets of
fabric beads (back and
front) to secure the
bench seat to. Your boat
should be around 50%
inflated before installing
the bench seat. Please
note the second bench
seat is sold separately.
Begin by feeding the
fabric beads on the pon-
toons through the nylon
slotted fittings under-
neath the aluminum
bench seat. Slide the
seat over the fabric
beads so that the seat
is toward the center.
With the floorboard in-
stalled and the seat in
place, you are now
ready to fully inflate the
main air chambers of
the boat to 100%. If you
are using an electric
pump, remember to set
the pressure to 3.2 PSI
before you begin.
NOTE:
Inflate the rigid
inflatable keel as much
as possible with the foot
pump until resistance is
met. The rigid inflatable
keel greatly improves
steering performance,
the structural strength of
the boat and softens the
impact of the ride when
going through waves.
Oars & Oarlocks
Assemble the AB25-5
oars by snapping them
together. There are
pre-drilled holes in the
middle of the oars so
you can slide it over the
oarlock and then secure
the oar in place using
the blue oar stopper.
Transom Drain Valve
Make sure that your
drain valve is always in
the closed position
(shown) while on the
water. When you are
motoring is the only
time that the drain valve
can be in the opened
position.
