AdvancedFrame™ Convertible Inflatable Kayak Owner's Manual
SOLUTION
If you have checked all the previous possible reasons for the kayak
losing air, then there may be a pinhole or a puncture somewhere on the
tube. Pull tube from outer covers. Inflate. If you cannot see or hear
where a leak may be, take a clean rag with soapy water and begin rub-
bing the tube. If a hole is present, bubbles will continually form. Repair
using repair kit. If it is a very small pinhole, a dab of the glue may be
sufficient.
The tube just needs to be adjusted. When kayak is fully deflated try ad-
justing the position of the tube inside of the outer shell. Then reinflate.
After inflating the kayak, turn upside down and leave out in sun for ap-
proximately ten minutes. Fin will conform to its original shape. Even if
it is slightly bent, it will not affect the kayaks performance.
If two of the ridges in the floor have formed one large one, the I-beam
has come apart. This is caused by over inflation. It cannot be repaired.
It is important to take all over inflation warnings very seriously.
There will almost always be a little water in the kayak. One reason is the
water drips off of the paddle and into the kayak. Another is some will
puddle up on the deck and leak through the zipper. Make sure that the
deck lifts are fully inflated so a puddle does not form. You can also get
a spray skirt from our accessories list from a dealer. This will help keep
the inside of the kayak dry as well as you.
A kayak will always head in the direction of your last stroke. The longer
the kayak the less this is usually noticed. If it is drifting in the opposite
direction, the floor may not be aligned. Make sure that the floor is prop-
erly centered inside the kayak cover. If the floor is off-center it will cause
uneveness in the kayak.
