To deflate, unscrew the inner valve
and remove. Most of the air will rush
out in a minute or two, and any
remaining air will be forced out when
the boat is rolled up for storage.
Pumps
A-41 bellows pump -
This pump is
used for all our products and is one of
the best on the market today. Attach
the hose to the valve on the right side
of the pump (as shown on the picture)
to inflate. The nozzle adapters allow
you to either inflate our small pipe
valves on the floor and seats or the
deluxe one-way valves on our main chambers. We firmly
recommend you always carry your A-41 on board for safety.
MB-50 electric pump - Sea Eagle
330 -
The MB-50 electric pump works
with a 12 volt car or marine battery to
inflate your Sea Eagle. The star
shaped valve set and the blue
deflation cap are not needed for the
SE-330.
Make sure your pump is off, and insert
the cigarette lighter adapter into your
car’s cigarette lighter. If your battery is
weak you might want to keep your
engine running.
The MB-50 needs no extra nozzles to
inflate the main air chambers of your
SE-330. Just insert the pump into the
valve and switch it on. Use the plastic
extender tube and the large nozzle to
inflate the seats. Do not drop your
pump or move it suddenly while it is
on.
MB-100 High Pressure Electric
Pump -
For use with the Explorer
Series hulls. Make sure your pump is
off, and hook the red positive alligator
clip to the positive side of your
battery. Hook up the negative clip to
the negative side of your battery.
Adjust the pressure dial on the MB-
100 pump to 220 milibar, or 3.2 PSI
as shown, and plug the hose into the
valve opening above the dial for
inflation. The other valve opening on
the other side of the pump is for
deflation, which is not necessary with
our boats.
Self Bailing Drain Valves
Sea Eagle 330 -
The SE-330 has one
drain valve at the stern. It should be
left closed for dry paddling or opened
for ocean or mild whitewater (up to
class 3)
Explorer 380x, 340x and 420x -
These kayaks contain two drain valves
at the stern and two more at the bow.
Unscrew them to the left for use in the
ocean surf or up to class 4
whitewater.The Explorer 380x,340x
and 420x will take on some water
when the valves are opened, but they
will self bail when the kayak is flooded.
It is best to keep the valves closed for
use in calm water to ensure dry
paddling.
Straight Arrow Directional Stabilizer
This accessory greatly improves the tracking ability of our
explorer kayaks in flat water. It also speeds up your paddling
by its flexible fishtail-like action in the water. It can be easily
removed for use in conditions where fast turning is more
important than tracking, such as ocean kayaking and
whitewater.
Old Style Directional Stabilizer -
The Old Style Directional Stabilizer is for 2003 and older
models of our Explorer Kayaks.
To install, first locate the two
fabric loops at the rear of
your 380x, 340x or 420x on
the bottom of the floor. Use
a flathead screwdriver to
hold the material of the
loops out of the way and
feed one end of the plastic
crossbar (the rectangular
piece with the two metal L-Brackets) into the loop.
Similarly feed the other end
of the crossbar into the
opposite fabric loop and
center the crossbar between
the loops. Use the strings
included to secure the cross
bar to fabric loops, by
threading the strings through
the holes at the ends of the cross bar. This is to prevent it
from dropping in water.
