EASY ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
Inflate the Drop-Stitch Board: Start by inflating the board.
Secure the Beach Chair: Attach the chair to the pre-installed tie-downs. Adjust it slightly forward or backward to your preference.
Place the Battery: Position the battery either behind the chair or in front of the motor. Use lashing tie-downs or bungee cords to secure it to the D-rings.
Attach the Transom: Fix the wooden transom to the motor using clamps. Lower the motor into the cut-out, ensuring the transom rests on the board.
Secure the Motor: Use the attached straps and carabiners to connect the transom to the D-rings. Tighten the lashing straps to keep the transom firmly in place.
HOW TO USE YOUR KAYAK
Steer with Ease: Operate the motor using your feet—just push in the direction you want to go! Or use the motor handle for manual steering.
Optional Velcro Cover: Cover the motor opening with the included Velcro cover for a clean look.
Optional Anti-Cavitation Plate: Reduce water splash with the optional plate. Ensure it doesn’t touch the board, allowing the motor to rotate freely.
Get ready to explore the water with unmatched ease and comfort!

Quick Tips:
Location of beach chair on top of board can be slightly adjusted forward or backward. Place chair rear leg closer toward rear D-rings and secure there first. Then secure front legs of chairs. Optional tie downs can be used to extend for smaller size chairs. Kayak seat can be secured to double D-rings.
Question: How long does battery lasts?
Answer: That depends on battery, speed and power of your motor. You can purchase smaller 12V 35Ah battery on Amazon, and run about 1 hour at full speed with 55lbs electric trolling motor on a smooth water. You can get 12V 120Ah deep cycle battery in local Walmart or Costco, and run for about 2-3 hours. Or, even more with smaller 30lbs trolling motor. Bigger batteries are usually heavy. Will need folding hand cart to move around. You can purchase 2 smaller 12V 20 to 35Ah, because it is easier to carry separately. You can use 1st battery to go one way, and 2nd battery to get back. Always carry kayak paddles just in case if something goes wrong with motor or battery. Also, must carry Personal Flotation Device for safety.
