FireFly™ Inatable Kayak Owner’s Manual
11
Your kayak is designed to be paddled with a double bladed kayak paddle. Paddle with short
and even strokes. Keep the blade close to the kayak and the paddle almost vertical. Pull with
your lower hand and push with your upper hand. To reduce the amount of swaying at the
front of the kayak, ease o on the force of your stroke. Paddling with a backward stroke can
sometimes oer quick maneuverability.
ALWAYS practice safety and take the time to learn about the area where you are paddling. Get
ocial information about the local tides and currents before paddling there. Be careful that
you do not over estimate your strength, your endurance or your skill. Be careful never to under
estimate weather conditions. Be aware of the dangers before you begin. Be aware of your skill
level. Be sure you understand and accept the risk of these dangers. There are many paddling
clubs all over the world. These can be a great source of information on places to paddle, people
to paddle with and most importantly, continued safety practices.
5. PROPER CARE AND STORAGE
Your inatable kayak is made of very durable materials. However, like anything else, proper
use and care will increase the life of your kayak. Before storing your kayak, make sure it is both
CLEAN and DRY. You may clean your kayak with a mild soap and water. NEVER use strong
solvents to clean your kayak as they will destroy the material.
If your kayak has been used in salt water, rinse it o with fresh water and allow it to dry before
storing. Use a dry towel to wipe up all moisture. It should be deated and kept out of direct
sunlight when stored. Avoid exposure to extreme temperatures (hot or cold). If your boat is
exposed to freezing temperatures while storing, allow it to warm up before unfolding.
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 ve minutes or until tacky.
6.2 Repairing Pinholes
1. Inate 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. Deate the tube and dry the aected area. Apply a drop of glue to the pinhole
3. Allow glue to dry completely.
4. Do not inate the kayak for at least twelve hours.
