FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
FAQ – REPAIR & MAINTENANCE
Q: What items are in the repair kit and how do I use them?
A: The included repair kit has the following items: wrench, PVC material and O-ring
washer for the hose end of the pump. The wrench is used to adjust and / or replace
the valve. Tightening and replacing the valve are not routine maintenance procedures.
Please contact customer service for detailed instructions. Should your board develop a
tear, we have included a piece of matching material. For small tears (less than 5.1 cm /
2 in) you can use PVC adhesive glue to affix the PVC material over the tear. For larger
tears, you should get assistance from a local marine repair shop.
A detailed protocol for repairing small tears can be found in the repair kit. Please note,
glue is not included in the repair kit. Adhesive is not included due to the relatively short
shelf life of this type of glue.
Q: When done using the board, what should be done for both
short-term and long-term storage?
A: After each use, inspect the board, in particular the valve area, and make sure that
it is clean and free of any debris. The board should be stored in an area away from
direct sunlight. Remember to check the pressure before using. It is recommended for
extended storage (several months) that you deflate the board and store in the enclosed
bag.
Q: How do I care for and store the kayak seat?
A: After using the board, disconnect the kayak seat and store with the other accessories
in the enclosed bag. If needed, the kayak seat can be cleaned with a towel, a mild
detergent and water and air dried.
FAQ – USE ON RIVERS
Q: Will rocks hurt the board?
A: Bumping into / scraping over rocks will not typically damage your inflatable board;
however, continuous scraping over time could lead to degradation and potential
damage.
Q: Can I use my board on a river and in rapids?
A: This board is suitable for flatwater and river use. Proper training and knowledge are
necessary for use in whitewater. Users should never attempt paddling / kayaking in swift
currents without proper training.
