INFLATABLE BOAT STORAGE AFTER USE
To store the boat inflated:
Open the self bailers.
Rinse the boat with fresh water to eliminate sand and all particles.
Let the water out through the transom self bailers.
Store boat bow up, (5 to 10 degrees is sufficient, so it will self drain through its bailers, in case of rain.
Unscrew the overpressure valve caps, so as to let the over pressure vent if necessary.
Turn the boat upside-down for storage, to avoid particles and bird droppings from entering the boat.
