    We’ve designed our boats to be very dependable and very simple to use and operate, even in the toughest conditions. Here are some in-depth tips and processes to keep your HYSIDE running in tip top shape for DECADES, like many of our happy customers have reported.

  • Page 8: Cleaning Your Hyside

    303 Protectant will bring back the shine. PROTECTING YOUR HYSIDE We recommend  303 Protectant  for your HYSIDE. Like sunscreen for your boat, it protects against UV rays and it seems to work as a coating that doesn’t allow dirt to adhere as much as if it weren’t there.
  • Page 9 Using the same PVC pipe, reverse the flow of air with the vacuum and blow air into the floor. The hot air will circulate and evaporate it until it is completely dry.   ROLLING YOUR HYSIDE Rolling your boat is very simple.

    (if shipping). This will avoid damage during transit and will save on freight if you are shipping it. If too big for a box, wrap the boat in a tarp, canvas, or HYSIDE Boat bag. Be sure not to load other equipment on top of the boat that could potentially wear on your boat.

    Preventive maintenance is your best tool in keeping your fleet on the river. 1. At the beginning of the rafting season, spray all rubber parts with 303 protectant. (See “Protecting Your HYSIDE”) 2. Whenever possible, store boats under a shelter, out of the sun’s harmful rays. Never let boats unnecessarily bake in the sun.
