Folding the boat
•
Lay the boat down on the floor.
•
Take out the aluminium or wooden floorboards,
if applicable. An inflatable floor can be left in
place.
•
Fold the boat to the middle of the boat, so that
the whole boat is as wide as the transom (1-2).
•
Bring the back of the side chambers to the
middle (3).
•
Roll the transom forward. This helps to get the
air out. Be sure all valves are in the open
position (4).
If you prefer the oars to be in the same pack / sack as
the boat take care that the oars will not damage the
pack / sack. Put in the round parts of the oars first.

Transportation
General information:
warning
- Never tow and/or lift your craft with people aboard.
- Frequently inspect the towing line.
- Periodically check the towing conditions and
especially that the craft is not taking in water.
IMPORTANT
: Only use components specifically
designed for lifting, towing, mooring and anchoring.
- Lifting out of the water: use handgrips and bow
handle.
- Towing: use port and starboard towing D-rings.
- Lifting in hoist: lifting D-ring(s) and lifting eyes in
the boat/transom.
- Mooring: bow handle and/or handgrips.
- Anchoring: bow handle and/or handgrips.
See drawing 2.10 for location of these components.
IMPORTANT
: Remove outboard engine, fuel tank,
all equipment and make sure no passengers are
onboard during lifting and/or towing.
4.1
Lifting the boat out of the water
Make sure there are no sharp edges under the boat on
the place where you want to lift the boat out of the
water. Make sure the boat is empty. Only use the
handgrips and bow handle for lifting out of the water.
See drawing 2.10 for location of these components.
4.2
Towing the boat
If the boat is to be towed by another boat, the boat
must be empty.
Use the port and starboard points on the bow of the
boat for towing (towing D-rings). Towing this way
makes the boat steady and secure behind the towing
boat, and helps to avoid damage to your Talamex
boat. See drawing 2.10 for location of these
components.
Attach a line between the towing D-rings to form a
bridal/triangle. Attach a towing line to this
bridle/triangle and tow the boat at slow speed.
4.3
Lifting the boat in hoist
When using a hoist to lift the boat, attach the hoist to
three/four lifting points in the boat. The number and
location of lifting points depends per Talamex boat
model. See drawing 2.10 for location of these
components.
Make sure the boat is empty and remove the drain
plug during the whole time the boat is stowed to
allow water to run out.
