STORAGE
• If possible, it is best to store your boat inside for the winter.
• Make sure all water is drained from between the deck and hull.
• When storing your boat, open the drain plug and stand it up to ensure proper drainage or turn it upside down.
• Don’t allow water to accumulate between the deck and hull and freeze. Freezing damages the polystyrene flotation foam.
• Don’t place the boat on 4x4’s or sawhorses. Dents will form in the hull.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
1. Where is the serial number located? The serial number is located in the back right hand corner on the outside of the hull
just under the rubrail. The number will be stamped on a silver plate, starts with JOK and is 12 digits long. See Photo #1.
2. There is water inside my boat. Is this normal? Just like any boat, your boat may take on some water. Because of its flexible
nature, a polyethylene boat is prone to accumulate a small amount of water between the deck and hull. Water may accumulate
between the deck and hull due to rain, waves and condensation. This is normal, not a defect, and should be drained after
each use. Do not return to the retailer. Please be sure to secure the drain plugs after draining. Remove battery before draining
your boat.
3. How should I store my boat in the winter? See Storage.
4. What can I do if dents form in the hull from improper storage? Expose the dent to warm sunlight preferably on the south
side of a building. As the plastic warms it will usually (but not always) return to its molded shape. This process may take one
day to two weeks.
