General Safety
Here are some general rules to follow to ensure you have a happy and safe trek on the water.
• Wear a personal flotation device (PFD). United States Coast Guard regulations require that all
kayaks have a PFD on board. Wearing your PFD will help keep your head above water and add
insulation to your body, keeping you warmer in cold water. There are PFDs designed specifically for
paddling. Get one that fits well.
• Follow the boating rules of the area you are in.
• Check weather conditions and water temperature and be prepared for changes in weather and the
possibility of a capsize.
• Wear appropriate clothing for your climate and the weather.
• Do not exceed the weight capacity of your boat and
always check your equipment for wear and tear before
you paddle.
• Consider taking a course to learn proper paddling
techniques, water safety and basic first aid.
• Know how to re-enter your kayak in the unlikely event
that you capsize.
• Tell someone where you are going, what you will be
doing, how long you expect to be gone and how many
people are in your party.
Limited Warranty
For the original retail purchaser (“Consumer”), Pakayak LLC warrants our kayaks to be free of
manufacturing defects for 24 months for hull, clamps, and gaskets, beginning from the date of
purchase (or, from date of shipment, if you are a Kickstarter backer or pre-order customer).
This warranty is not transferable and does not apply to owner modifications.
Pakayak LLC retains the right to satisfy warranty via repair or replacement of products or of
components deemed defective. In addition, Pakayak LLC reserves the right to replace original kayaks
or equipment with comparable current products.
Registering for Warranty Service
The warranty registration form should be completed within 30 days of original purchase (or, 30 days of
receipt, if you are a Kickstarter backer or pre-order customer) to be activated. Please keep your sales receipt
for proof of purchase as it will be required for warranty service. Register at www.pakayak.com/register.
Obtaining Warranty Service
In the event of a manufacturing defect, please complete the form online at www.pakayak.com/warranty. We
will get back to you with instructions. Any defect will either be repaired or replaced, at Pakayak’s option, at
no charge to the Consumer and returned, shipping paid by Pakayak, to the Consumer within a reasonable
period of time. Consumer is responsible for delivery to Pakayak. You will receive shipping instructions when
we issue a Return Authorization Number. No boats will be accepted for warranty claims without a Return
Authorization Number.
While our products are very durable and will withstand many years of normal use, this warranty does
not cover damage from misuse or abuse, improper care, accidents, or normal wear and tear as
materials naturally break down over extended use and time. Additionally, variations in color and fading
due to exposure are not covered by warranty.
