Inflation tips and floor positioning
Inflate the floor, then a side tube, then the second one to 50%. Check the positioning of the chambers. Then fully inflate it to a maximum pressure of 0.1 bar (1.5 psi).
DO NOT OVER INFLATE!
Ensure the valves are properly closed.
Install the three skegs, unless using on a river with a low water level.
In the event of EXTREME HEAT, slightly deflate the kayak out of the water to avoid over-inflation, which could damage the kayak.
Do not leave the kayak inflated in direct sunlight
How to maintain your inflatable
In the event of damage to one of the side chambers, open the side tube lengthways using the zip and remove the chamber.
The floor can be uncovered by opening the velcro fastenings.
Example 1: the hole is in the side tube; you can use the repair kit to stick on a patch.
Example 2: The hole is located along a seam; contact the DECATHLON workshop service to exchange the faulty bladder (two-year warranty).
How do I store my inflatable kayak?
Backpack-style carry bag for short distances.
Easy-clip fins.
Deflate the kayak by opening the 3 "Boston" valves.
Fold the lateral tubes down onto the floor.
Roll, starting from the opposite side to the valves to remove the air.
Place the rolled-up kayak into the main compartment of the bag.
Close the zip and tighten using the compression strap.
Glide performance
Patented bow shape: The front and back ends provide good glide. The V-shaped front of the kayak enables smooth entry into the water.
Directions for use
We recommend that you use the product with a buoyancy vest.
regulations for canoes/kayaks under 3.50 metres
Is your canoe-kayak inflatable or rigid and is less than 3.50 metres? You have what is called a beach craft.
You must always stay within 300 metres of a shelter (any place on the coast where any craft or vessel and its crew can get to safety by anchoring or berthing, and set off again without assistance).
Buoyancy life vests are not mandatory but strongly recommended to make it easier to get back in the boat if you fall out.
regulations for canoes/kayaks over 3.50 metres
Your canoe/kayak is rigid or inflatable with at least 2 separate air chambers. It measures more than 3.50 metres. It is approved for sea use by the manufacturer.
You can paddle up to 2 nautical miles (approx. 3 km) from shore. You must carry a number of items of safety equipment.
