STORAGE
• Winter can be very hard on boats. We advise cleaning and coating electrical fittings with CRC 56 or battery terminal protectant
prior to storage. For best results, we suggest a mooring cover, which prevents water and debris from accumulating. These are
available from either your local dealer or direct from KL Industries, Inc. If possible store your boat in a garage or barn.
• Make sure all water is drained from between the deck and hull.
• When storing your boat, open the drain plugs to ensure proper drainage.
• Don’t allow water to accumulate between the deck and hull and freeze. Freezing damages the polystyrene flotation foam.
• Remove the seats and store them inside.
• Don’t fill the boat with gear.
• Release the tension from winch and tie down straps.
• Don’t store the boat on sawhorses.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
1. Where can I mount a depth finder? A depth finder may be mounted on either side of the stern on our
fishing boats. See photo #6 for mounting locations. Use caulking to seal the mounting screws and locate
the transducer away from the turbulence. The transom consists of 1” plywood placed per the above dashed
lines. The transducer can be placed on either side per the diagram. Do not mount into the outside sponson
because there is only the material thickness of the hull to screw to and a leak will result.
2. Where is the serial number located? The serial number is located in the back right hand corner on the outside of the hull
just under the rubrail. The number will be stamped on a silver plate, starts with JOK and is 12 digits long. See Photo #2.
3. There is water inside my boat. Is this normal? Just like any boat, your boat may take on some water. Because of its flexible
nature, a polyethylene boat is prone to accumulate a small amount of water between the deck and hull. Water may accumulate
between the deck and hull due to rain, waves and condensation. This is normal, not a defect, and should be drained after each
use. Do not return to the retailer. The deluxe model has drains under the seats to drain the deck. Ensure they do not become
plugged with debris. The through hull drain plug is located in the back of the boat. It eliminates any water between the deck
and hull. See Photo #3. Remove the plug and lift the bow of the boat so all the water drains to the transom. Please be sure to
secure the drain plug after draining. Remove battery before draining your boat.
