12. Insert the foot pegs.

Insert the foot pegs into the pontoon frame as shown. Starting with a position in 

the middle of the adjustment range, align the holes and secure with two clevis pins.

8. Attach the seat frame to the pontoon frames.

Insert the seat platform tubes onto the pontoon frame posts with the 

seat facing the front. The front of the pontoon frames are the ends 

labeled “L” (left) and “R” (right). (You may need to LIGHTLY tap the 

frames with a rubber mallet to fit).
Align the holes and secure with four clevis pins. 
You MUST lock the security retainers on all four clevis pins to insure 

that the frame stays together.

 Insert clevis pins on the frame side not in between bladder and 

frame to avoid abrasion of pontoon.

10. Thread the anchor bag cord.

Start by feeding the cord into the front 

anchor cord pulley located on the side 

of either pontoon frame. Continue by 

threading the cord through the cord 

guides and under all frame tubes.
Next, insert the cord through the rear 

cord tube guide [1] on the rear platform 

frame. Finish by threading the cord 

through the pulley mounted on the 

rear platform frame and attaching the 

cord to the anchor bag.

9. Attach the rear platform frame and wire cargo deck.

In order to attach the rear platform frame you must first partially attach the wire cargo deck. Start by sliding the bent wire 

tabs into the slots welded on to the rear of each pontoon frame. 
Next, push the rear platform frame tubes into the open 

tubes on the rear of each pontoon frame. Make sure to 

insert the wire guides on the rear of the wire cargo deck 

into the corresponding holes on the rear platform frame as 

you push the tubes together.
Attach the rear corners with two clevis pins. These secure 

the rear platform frame to the pontoon frames. Be sure 

to insert each pin through the rear platform frame and 

through the pontoon frames. Lock both clevis pins. 

11. Insert the oar locks.

Insert an oar lock into the top of both oar lock brackets on the pontoon frames. There are three oar 

lock positions; we suggest starting with the forward most position. If you have the seat set back you 

may prefer the middle or back position. Secure each oar lock with an oar lock cotter pin.

Note: Seat, wire cargo deck and 

p0ntoons removed for clarity

Attach this end 

of anchor line to 

the anchor bag

Front anchor
