6. REPAIRS
All kayaks come with a repair kit that includes glue and several patches. This should remain
with the kayak in the event that you may need it. If service is required for your kayak, please call
866-262-9076 for assistance.
6.1 Repairing Small Punctures and Cuts
1. Cut a rounded patch at least ¼" or ½" larger than the hole or cut.
2. Clean the area where the patch will be placed with water and/or mild soap.
3. Make sure all surfaces are dry.
4. In a well ventilated area, spread a thin layer of glue on both the patch and on the
damaged area. Let it sit for three to five minutes or until tacky.
6.2 Repairing Pinholes
1. Inflate the PVC tube. Locate the pinhole by sponging soapy water over the tube until
you see air bubbles. Mark the location of the pinhole.
2. Deflate the tube and dry the affected area. Apply a drop of glue to the pinhole
3. Allow glue to dry completely.
4. Do not inflate the kayak for at least twelve hours.
7. TROUBLESHOOTING
PROBLEM
Does not hold air while
inflating
The kayak is sagging.
The kayak will not hold
full pressure for more
than couple of hours.
The kayak still loses air.
SOLUTION
The spring valve uses a plunger system. The only time the plunger
should be in the open position is when you are deflating. Make sure
that the plunger is closed to inflate. Push the plunger in and rotate
counter-clockwise.
Be sure that the right pump is being used. You need a bellows foot
pump or a double action hand pump. A 12-V electric does not supply
enough pressure to fully inflate the kayak. The 12-V can be used to par-
tially inflate the kayak but one of the other pumps is needed to top it off.
Make sure that the plunger is in the closed position. It should only
be open when deflating. If it is open, the only seal is the black rubber
gasket inside the cap. Even then, a little air may still leak out.
If you have checked all the previous possible reasons for the kayak los-
ing air, then there may be a pinhole or hole 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 rubbing 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.
