Remove the tramp tension hooks from the small parts
box. Each side of the boat gets three hooks. Slide the
hooks into the tramp track on each hull so that the
hooks face down. Align each hook along the track to
correspond with the notches on the side of the trampo-
line.
The foam plugs in the small parts
box are intended to prevent the
hooks from sliding out if the trampo-
line is removed during transporta-
tion. Squeeze each plug into the
ends of the hook track to install. If
the boat is to remain assembled
there is no need to install the plugs.
Lift the front crossbar and insert the left end into the left
hull. Insert only partially. Lift the rear crossbar and insert
the left end into the left hull. Keep the straps rolled
around the rear crossbar. Insert front and rear complete-
ly (see below). The crossbars have stops built into the
underside that will limit the depth the crossbar can be
inserted.
Reach up and hold the
right end of the front
crossbar, and pull it
down. This will rotate the
left hull to the upright
position. Straddle the
right hull and rotate it to
the upright position by
grabbing the crossbar
insert hole on the out-
board side and pulling it
horizontal to the ground.
Insert the front crossbar
partially. Align and insert
the rear crossbar partially. Working front and rear, wig-
gle hull onto crossbars until fully inserted (below).
Pass the two trampoline cables from the front crossbar
through the trampoline side loops to the rear crossbar.
As shown (from the underside of the trampoline) in
the figure below, on each side at the rear crossbar,
locate the line that runs from the rear corner pulley
block. Pass the line to the rear trampoline "D" ring and
return through the small pulley block. Pass the end of
the line through the trampoline cable end fitting and tie a
"figure 8" knot.

The figure below is the top view of the figure above.
Making adjustments and retying the knot at the pulley
block will loosen or tighten the side cables. The cables
should be somewhat loose at this time. Be sure the "D"
rings remain as pictured above and not pulled from one
end when loaded, as damage may result.

Tensioning The Trampoline

As shown here, hook the
trampoline side cables
onto the three hooks on
each hull. (If you are re-
assembling, be sure that
the mainsheet system is
loose or disconnected
from ring at front of
trampoline
to
keep
cables loose.)
