Outdoor Gear

Boat has been rolled out. Pontoons partially inflated to allow for floor installation. Once floor installed (which it is in this photo), begin pumping it up. Then move on to the pontoons.

Another View of Pumping Up the Floor. You want to keep the side pontoons only partially inflated until the floor is fully inflated.

The rope I installed on the kayak is easy to see in this photo, running the full length of the boat. Makes everything a snap to attach things.

Just another view of one pontoon and floor fully inflated. Next is the other side.

The drain valves on my older kayak are rather poorly located, and there is only four of them. The newer kayaks have drain valves both in front/back/along the sides - and have a total of 16 of them. It's a huge improvement over my model 380x. Still, you need to make sure you don't accidentally cover them up.

This isn't much of a worry with the new kayaks, due to a different type of floor used and the fact that it has 16 drain valves instead of the four in mine.

Both seats installed. Boat is ready to be loaded-only to discover I was trying to carry way too much gear!
