3. Rips or Tears Your Duras Inflatable Boat comes with a repair kit as standard equipment. If you no longer have your repair kit, you can order a new one from your dealer. Cut a patch of repair material large enough to overlap the damaged area by approximately 1/2", and round off the edges.
® Using Your Duras Inflatable Boat 1. Rowing Duras Inflatable Boats are equipped with oars and oar locks as standard equipment. The oars can be attached to swiveling oarlocks which allow for easy rowing. 2. Motoring & Safety All boats have their own unique handling characteristics, so take time to familiarize yourself with how your boat maneuvers in various conditions.
Some Other Points to Remember • After 2 or 3 days, there may be a small decrease of pressure due to temperature change. • Before undertaking a long trip, inflate the boat for a full 24 hours to be sure all chambers are completely airtight.
