OWNER'S MANUAL
WARNING
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Follow all the Safety and Operating Instructions. If you don't
follow these instructions, it may cause the boat to overturn or
explode and result in drowning.
1. Do not exceed the maximum recommended number of
persons. Regardless of the number of persons on board, the
total weight of persons and equipment must never exceed the
maximum recommended load. Always use the seats / seating
spaces provided.
2. When loading the craft, never exceed the maximum recommended
load: Always load the craft carefully and distribute loads appropriately
to maintain design trim (approximately level). Avoid placing heavy weights high up.
NOTE: The maximum recommended load includes the weight of all persons onboard, all provisions and
personal effects, any equipment not included in the light craft mass, cargo (if any) and all consumable
liquids (water, fuel, etc.).
3. When using the boat, life saving devices such as life jackets and buoys should be pre-inspected and
used at all times.
4. Before every use, carefully inspect all boat components including air-chambers, grab ropes, oars, and
air valves, to ensure everything is in good condition and tightly secured. If you find any damage, please
stop to repair it.
5. Buckets, water scoops and air pumps should always be available in case of air leakage or if the boat
takes on water.
6. When the boat is in motion, all passengers must remain seated at all times to avoid going overboard.
Keep the boat balanced. Uneven distribution of persons or load in the boat may cause the boat to
overturn and result in drowning.
7. Use the boat near the shore and beware of natural factors such as wind, tide waters and tidal waves.
BE AWARE OF OFFSHORE WINDS AND CURRENTS.
8. If one chamber is punctured when the boat is in the water, it may be necessary to fully inflate the other
air chamber to prevent the boat from sinking.
9. Be careful when landing on the shore. Sharp and rough objects such as rocks, cement, shells, glass,
etc. may puncture the boat. To avoid damage, do not drag the boat on rough surfaces.
10. When choosing an outboard motor, refer to the technical specifications section of this manual to
determine acceptable horsepower ratings.
11. For electrical motors equipped with batteries, note that battery acid can be caustic, which can cause
damage to both skin and boat materials.
12. For motors which use fuels such as gas, oil or petrol, since fuel is a flammable substance, it should be
kept away from open flames. Further, clean the boat material immediately if fuel spatters onto the boat
surface. Be aware of the potential harmful efects of liquids such as battery acid, oil or petrol. The liquids
may damage your boat.
13. Inflate according the numbered air chamber and rated pressure of the boat, or it will cause over-inflation
and potential and boat explosion. Exceeding the data given on the capacity plate may cause the craft to
be damaged, overturn and lead to drowning.
14. If you use the tow rings to tow the boat, go slowly to avoid over-towing as damage may occur.
15. Know how to operate a boat. Check in your local area for information and/or training as needed. Inform
yourself about local regulations and dangers related to boating and/or other water activities.

Note:
- The floorboards must be assembled before inflating the hull.
NOTE: Pressure gauge is for inflation purpose only, and the value of the pressure gauge is just for reference, should
not be used as a precision instrument.
- Only use Bestway approved inflation pumps.
®
- Never use motor-driven high-pressure air pumps as this may result in over-inflation.
- Under and over-inflation will result in safety hazards.
- Always check the inflation pressure before using the boat.
- Never stand on or rest objects on the boat during inflation.
- Never open the cap of air valve while the boat is in use.
- Be sure the valve is tightly closed before using the boat.
Note: When the oars are not in use, lock the oars into the Oar Clasps to avoid damage.
Outboard Motor Installation
With the boat fully inflated and in the water, attach your outboard motor onto Engine Mount at the center of the Transom.
Note:
- Ensure the motor is always fixed on the Transom.
- Read the instruction of outboard motor for correct installation and operation.
- Overpowering a boat can result in serious injury, death or boat damage. The maximum motor power to be used see
marking on the product.

cause damage and shorten the boat's life span.
4. To deflate, open the Air Valves pushing the control stem in and rotating until the valves stay open. Deflate all the hull
P6J718ASS18
chambers at the same time so the air-pressure drops together. This will prevent damage form occurring to the boat's

5. Next deflate the Keel.
6. Disassemble the seat and floor.
7. Fold the boat from front to back to remove additional air. You can also use a pump to drain any remaining air.
