TROUBLE SHOOTING

When you find the boat appears a bit soft, it might not definitely be because of a leak.
Firstly you can check if valve caps are loose. If all valves are in good condition, you can
consider if it is caused by temperature variation: If the boat was inflated in the day at higher
temperature, say, 35 º C (95 º F), and air might cool down to 25 º C (7 7 º F) overnight,
so that the pressure on the hull may lower down, and the boat will appear soft the next
morning.
If valves and temperature variation are not the reasons, you need to start looking for a leak:
1.Position the leak area: You can check your boat from a few feet away or flip it over and
closely check over the outside. Any large leaks should be clearly visible.
2.Pinpoint the location of the leak: spry mild soapy water over the suspicious areas. Any
leak will produce bubbles.
3.Check valves system for leak.

REPAIRS

Little holes or puncture can be repaired with the repair kit come along with the boat.
1. Find the leak.
2. Thoroughly clean the area surrounding the leak to remove any dirt or grime.
3. Cut a piece of repair material in round shape, which should be larger than the damaged
area.
4. Using a piece of the repair kit, trace outline of the patch lightly.
5. Apply adhesive to the underneath side of the patch and around the area to be repaired.
Coat the affected are lightly but completely with glue.
6. Put the patch on the damaged area and press down firmly.

complete seal (dry 4 hours).
