SOLO SKIFF GENERAL INFORMATION
Your Solo Skiff is made by a process called rotational molding. The entire hull is all one piece. It is made of polyethylene, one
layer of outer plastic resin that contains the color, and a layer inside that is foamed. This multi layer process greatly increases
the strength of your hull while at the same time providing a margin of safety against cracks. With proper care the hull will
last for many years of use. The multi layer process also greatly aids in flotation. Your Solo Skiff has the foam layer on the
entire inside surface. If you cut a Solo Skiff in pieces and put each piece in the water they will all float. This provides a level of
safety you do not get with any single layer kayak. Your Solo Skiff also has foam blocks installed for added flotation and safety.
Do not remove these blocks of foam.
CONSTRUCTION
Your Solo Skiff is designed to be used in fresh water, or saltwater. All factory hardware is stainless and corrosion resistant.
YOUR SOLO SKIFF CAN BE POWERED BY;
1. OUTBOARD MOTORS (5Hp Maximum)
2. ELECTRIC TROLLING MOTORS (30-40Lb Thrust is plenty)
3. ELECTRIC OUTBOARDS (TORQEEDO 1003)
4. MANUAL POWER - SOLO SKIFF ROWING KIT, SUP/KAYAK PADDLE, PUSH POLE
Regardless of how you power your Solo Skiff the first priority should always be safety. Familiarize yourself with the Solo Skiff
before venturing out into the water. Before venturing into open water be sure you have read this manual as well as your en-
gine manual. Make sure your engine is securely and properly fastened to the hull. Make sure you fully understand all opera-
tional procedures of the motor and have a backup plan in case of failure. If your using battery power, be sure you understand
your range. Range on a trolling motor great diminishes with speed. The faster you try to go, the faster the battery goes dead.
