In general, installation is easier if you start from the front board #1 and work toward the middle of the
boat. Then install the rear board and work toward installed boards.
•
The two floor boards in the middle of the boat will slightly overlap with each other. Lift them up near the
connection in an “A” shape and then apply direct pressure on top of that structure (with your foot or
hands) until the floor boards are installed flat.
•
For easier installation of the side stringers, try placing one assembled rowing oar on the ground, along
the boat bottom. Then lift that side of the boat up and push the assembled oar slightly under the boat in
such a way that the floor boards are slightly elevated. This gap will make it easier to slide the stringers
over the floor board edges. Repeat this step on the other side.
•
After the floor is installed, make sure the tubes are fully inflated to squeeze stringers into floor
channels. The boat tubes should be rigid without wrinkles or soft to the touch.
•
Now you’re ready to hit the water!

Insert stringers into side edges of floorboards. Side edges of floorboard should easily fit into C-channel of
stringer.
