About Your Fishing Boat

Hull and Deck

The hull and deck are thermoformed from High Density Polyethylene plastic for impact resistance and durability.

Capacity and Flotation

Capacity and flotation are determined by boat size, with foam blocks providing flotation under normal loading.

Setting Up Your Fishing Boat

Components and Basic Set Up

Follow recommended steps to prepare your boat. Check hull decal for model identification.

Installing the Seats

Attach swivel mounting bases to seats using fasteners, ensuring they are snug but not over-tightened.

Installing Drain Plug(s)

Install transom drain plug and bow drain plug (9.4) or transom drain plug (10.2) to drain water.

Electrical Power

Use a 12V Deep Cycle Marine battery. Connect RED wire to POSITIVE (+) and BLACK wire to NEGATIVE (-).

Operating the Boat

Launching Tips

Enlist help for launching, ensure motor is tilted, remove tie-downs, install drain plugs, and step into boat center.

Mooring and Docking

Avoid shallow water mooring. Use boat fenders to prevent hull scraping against docks.

Livewell Operation

Fill livewell about 2/3 full with cool water. Periodically cycle the aerator pump if equipped.

Lights

Use navigation lights in poor lighting conditions, e.g., dusk, dawn, fog.

Transporting

Transporting by Pick Up Truck

Tie boat down snugly with straps in a pickup truck bed, avoiding over-tightening to prevent hull distortion.

Trailering

Rest boat on support bunks (min. 3.5" wide, 5' long). Do not rest on keel rollers. Tie snugly.

Maintenance

General Cleaning

Wash with mild detergent and water. Use a soft brush. Avoid plastic conditioners and abrasive cleaners.

Salt Water Maintenance

Periodically scrape hull surface to remove barnacles. Consider antifouling preservative for extended use.

Aerator Pump (10.2 Only)

Check and clean intake slots periodically. Twist pump counterclockwise to remove and flush.

Storage

Preparation for Storage

Remove boat from water. Store on supports along hull length, not on ground. Loosen tie-down straps.

Final Storage Steps

Close light sockets, remove drain plugs, position bow higher than stern, remove accessories, and cover boat.

Optional Accessories

Boat Covers

Custom designed boat covers made from long-lasting vinyl are available.

Trailers

Trailers designed for KL Industries fishing boats can be purchased at a local trailer dealer.
