WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW
ABOUT YOUR FOLDING CANOE
BEFORE YOU START ASSEMBLY
The Ally folding canoe consists of many parts, but the assembly
procedure is relatively simple once you become familiar with the
function of each individual part. Spend a little time to study the
construction before you begin. Your first assembly will likely take a
while, but with a little practice it should take no longer than 20-
30 minutes.
Note the following principles:
• Read the assembly instructions carefully.
• Sort and lay out the parts into their respective subset groups.
• Avoid first time assembly in high temperature conditions since
the aluminum stays will have expanded while the canoe skin has
not - making it a tighter fit than normal.
• Don’t worry that the chine (lengthwise) rods appear too long
for the canoe at first.The skin will stretch to fit.
• Two people can assemble the canoe with less effort than if you
attempt to do it solo.
• Step on the canoe skin only when it lies flat on land, or when
the canoe is on the water. Avoid placing it on gravel, sharp
rocks etc.
The Ally folding canoe is developed and manufactured in Norway. It’s low weight, great flexibility and durable construction have made
it the choice of expeditions worldwide.
The Ally folding canoe is a special product, which requires that you familiarize yourself with its unique construction to get optimum
use out of it. We therefore recommend that you read carefully through all the assembly instructions before you start assembly for
the first time.
