5. PROPER CARE AND STORAGE
Your inatable kayak is made of very durable materials. However, like anything else, proper
use and care will increase the life of your kayak. Before storing your kayak, make sure it is both
CLEAN and DRY. You may clean your kayak with a mild soap and water. NEVER use strong
solvents to clean your kayak as they will destroy the material.
NEVER unzip the chamber cover when the kayak is inated.
Be sure to rinse your kayak with fresh water aer every use in salt water and allow it to dry
thoroughly before storing. Use a dry towel to wipe up all moisture. It should be deated and
kept out of direct sunlight when stored. Avoid exposure to extreme temperatures (hot or cold).
If your boat is exposed to freezing temperatures while storing, allow it to warm up before
unfolding.
Do not store your kayak for an extended period of time while wet.
Follow these steps for removing excess water.
1. Unzip the 2 zippers that run down the sides of the kayak.
2. Use a sponge or towel and wipe up any excess water in the outer cover.
3. Wipe o the oor (top and boom)
4. If there is sand or gravel in the kayak, you can hose out the cover, and then wipe it
down with a towel.
5. Most of the time you can wipe out the inside of the kayak absorbing most of the water,
then pack it up.
