● Whilst kayaking please consider appropriate clothing for the weather or climate. It is highly recommended
to wear a buoyancy aid vest or other personal flotation device, and a wetsuit in cooler conditions.
● Stay hydrated by packing a water bottle in your cargo area. You can secure a bag or cooler under the cargo
bungees with ease.
● Store your mobile phone in the waterproof case provided. Also, consider packing a whistle or flashlight in
case of an emergency.
● Your kayak can expand and over-inflate in very hot temperatures. Please check the air pressure and
deflate as necessary.
● Please pack and store the kayak in the backpack provided, in a cool dry place and away from direct
sunlight. You should clean and maintain your kayak after each use. Hose down if necessary to prevent
mildew build-up in storage. Do not use harsh chemicals for cleaning. Most dirt can be removed with mild
soap and water.
● A repair kit is provided, with extra patches and a valve tightening tool. From time-to-time your valve may
need tightening to prevent any air leaks. To tighten the valve first ensure that the board is fully deflated.
Insert the tool into the valve and push upwards from the underside of the board to ensure that the valve is
making firm contact with the thread. Next, turn the tool clockwise until the valve is fully tightened and
secure.
● Please ensure that no water gets inside of your kayak as this can severely damage the kayak. If water
gets inside the valve, then please remove the valve using the tool provided. Drain any water and dry
thoroughly before re-attaching the valve and inflating.
