9. At this point check at the very rear of the last piece. The gap between it and the tube should be the same
on both sides. If it isn't then pull it back up where it connects to the second last piece (about 10 inches),
readjust, and snap back down. You need enough room on each side to be able to install the stringers.
10. You also need to make sure the edges of the boards "2", "3" & "4" are all lined up. This is necessary to
make the installation of the stringers much easier.
11. Install the stringers onto each side of the floor. Each side should have a long stringer and a short one
(unless you are assembling a larger boat).. They need to be installed so that they overlap the joints of the
floor pieces. This is what will provide stability. This is tricky because it is a tight fit. It may help to have
another person pulling up on the tubes using the straps that hold the seat.
12. Since the boat is a bit wider towards the back, it may make it easier to fit the first stringer (the larger one)
near the rear but away from the transom. We usually install it where the #4 & #3 board join together.
13. Place the stringer as shown below in the photos. You want the gap in the stringer to be over the lip on the
floor board. Once it is as shown below, install the stringer into place as shown in the photos. It may
sometimes take some "elbow grease" in order to get the stringer to snap into place.
14. After you get the first stringer installed onto the aluminum track you can slide it toward the rear of the
boat. We have to sometimes tap the stringer lightly with a rubber mallet until it slides forward. It does not
matter if you install the short or long stringer first, but we always install the longer one first then slide it
towards the rear.
15. Install the aluminum seats into the seat straps.
16. Inflate the three tubes to 100% (3.6PSI or 0.25BAR)
17. Inflate the keel to 100% (5.8PSI or 0.40BAR)
18. Install the oars.
19. Install the plug.
20. GO BOATING!!!
What is 100% full & don't have a gauge? Inflate the tubes until the hand pump becomes somewhat
difficult to push down.
