STORING YOUR KAYAK
Boats made from polyethylene plastic are
strong, rigid and highly impact resistant, but
due to the nature of plastic in general, it is
important to store your boat properly. It is always
best to store your kayak indoors, out of direct
sunlight and protected from inclement weather.
Preferably, you should stand your boat on end
or hang it suspended by slings. Hanging your
boat from its grab loops or handles increases
the chance of warpage. You can also store your
boat on the floor, upside down, but only as a
last resort.
TRANSPORTING YOUR KAYAK
Because of their light weight and shape,
kayaks are ideally suited for car topping.
Your primary concern in carrying your kayak
is that it stays securely tied to the vehicle.
But, as with storage, another concern should
be potential distortion of the hull.
Car-topping the kayak is best done with a quality
roof rack specifically designed for attaching
kayaks (e.g. Thule). Foam cradles attached to
the rack are another option. The boat should
be tied to the vehicle as well as the rack by its
grab handles.
Over tightening bow and stern lines will increase
the likelihood of warpage as will leaving the
boat tied tightly in the sun for prolonged periods.
