Long Term Storage
Page 26 of 29
• For long-term storage and to prevent hull deformation, your kayak should be kept on its side or
upside down, on a padded rack with bars placed on or near the bulkheads.
• Take care to protect it from long–term exposure to the sun or extreme heat, which can degrade any
material and cause permanent damage.
• You may also want to cover the cockpit to guard against dust, debris, and small animals setting up
homes.
• Always make sure that your kayak is dry before you store if for winter and leave the drain plug open
for ventilation.
• Avoid using the carrying handles to hang/support the kayak for storage.
