Page 13: (D) Transport
(D) TRANSPORT. You have multiple options when transporting your Blue Sky Boatworks boat. As the boats can be assembled/disassembled in a few minutes no component exceeds 46 pounds, a single person with a roof rack on his or her car can manage just fine. Of course a pick-up truck or trailer makes things a little easier.
Page 14: (E) Storage And Care
(E) STORAGE AND CARE. When not in use, store your Blue Sky Boatworks boat out of the weather and direct sunlight. Direct sunlight can fade your boat over time and in extreme heat can warp the hull. Protection from the elements discourages insects/small animals from making a home of your boat.
Page 15: (F) Accessories
(F) ACCESSORIES. Your Blue Sky Boatworks boat is designed to accept a range of accessories that let you customize your boat to your adventure. The 360° Angler offers a number of additional features specifically designed for the fishing enthusiast. Modifications by the owner that require drilling into the hulls/frame are not recommended and, in most cases, can void the warranty.
