VALVE OPERATION
Follow the instructions below for valve operation and correct inflation and deflation procedures.
(This kind of valve is used for the boat hull, keel and air deck floor for BT-88850AD)
To close off the valve for inflation, make sure that the center
valve pin is in the “UP” position. If it is in the “down” position,
press down on the valve pin and turn it counterclockwise
until it pops up.
VALVE DIAGRAM
To open the valve for deflation, press down on the valve pin
and turn it clockwise so it locks down.
Be careful of any sand or debris around the valve area
when deflating as small particles could become airborne
with the release of the air pressure.
Always lock the valve cover over the valve stem when in
use. This will prevent accidental air release and entrance of
any particles into the air chambers.
INFLATION STEPS
1. Ensure the air valve’s center pin is properly in position by rotating the control stem until it pops
out. This ensures no air escapes during inflation.
2. Inflate the hull. After inflation, insert the provided pressure gauge into the air valve to check
the air pressure. The ideal pressure is 0.16bar - 0.25bar. (Fig. 1)
3. Inflate the keel (BT-88810, BT-88830 excluded)
Stop inflating until the pressure reaches 0.3bar. (Fig. 2)
Valve cap

4. Inflate the floor (only BT-88830)
Inflation valve operation for BT-88830
1. Open the external cap and pull firmly to make it pushed out. (Fig.1)
2. Attach a suitable adapter nozzle to the inflation end of the pump. Insert the pump and start
pumping. (Fig.2)
3. When the boat is fully inflated, gently twist the adapter sleeve to right while backing pump out
of the valve. (Fig.3)
4. Fully remove the adapter and close the external stopper. (Fig.4)
After inflation, make sure the pressure of boat deck is 0.04bar.
NOTES: Check the pressure every time before usage. Air temperature and weather conditions
do affect the internal air pressure of inflatable products. In cold weather the product will lose
some pressure due to the fact that the air will contract. If this occurs, you may want to add a
little air to the product. However, in hot weather, the air will expand. You must let some air out to
prevent the product from failing due to overpressure.
• Only use Aqua Marina® approved inflation pumps.
• Never use motor-driven high-pressure air pumps as this may result in over-inflation. Fill with
cold air only.
• Under and over-inflation will result in safety hazards.
• Always check the inflation pressure before using the boat.
• Never stand on or rest objects on the boat during inflation.
• Never open the cap of air valve while the boat is in use.
• Be sure the valve is tightly closed before using the boat.
ACCESSORY ASSEMBLY
1. Wooden bench seat installation
Slide the bench seat into the position by inserting the flaps on both chamber of the boat into
notches on the Seat Board. Optional accessory like Swivel Seat (B0301762) can be installed on
the top of bench seat for fishing.
2. Insert the plug into the drain valve on the transom
Always make sure the plug is secured into the valve before launching the boat and do not open
while afloat.
Fig.1 Fig.2 Fig.3 Fig.4

13
OUTBOARD MOTOR INSTALLATION
After the boat is fully inflated and well assembled, attach your outboard motor onto the Engine
Mount at the center of the transom.
NOTE:
• Ensure the motor is always fixed on the transom.
• Read the instruction manual of the outboard motor for correct installation and operation.
WARNING: Overpowering a boat can result in serious injury, death or boat damage. Find the
maximum motor power marked on the boat label.
OPTIONAL CONSOLE INSTALLATION
Refer to AM removable fiberglass steering console instruction.
NOTE: The console should be installed before the inflation of keel
OAR ASSEMBLY INSTALLATION
1. Join the two shafts of the oars together with the couplers and securely tighten the couplers
covers. (Fig. 9)
NOTE: Completely insert the shafts into the Couplers or damage may occur.
2. Attach the oars to the rotation oarlocks and lock them into position. (Fig. 10 & 11)
NOTE: When the oars are not in use, insert the oars into the Oar Holders to avoid damage and
loss.

PRODUCT CARE AND STORAGE
The boat is made of the highest quality materials and complies with ISO 6185 standards. Altering
the construction of the boat will endanger your own safety, safety of the occupants and void the
limited warranty!
There is very little that you have to do to keep your boat in good condition for many years.
• When landing on the shore, carry the boat. Do not tow it on the sand or ground as damage
may occur.
• If you use the tow rings to tow the boat, go slowly to avoid over-towing as damage may occur.
• Clean your boat after a trip to prevent damage from sand, salt water or sun exposure. Most
dirt can be removed with a garden hose, a sponge and mild soap. Make sure the boat is
completely dry before storing. Use as few cleaning agents as possible, do not discharge
waste agents into water, and clean your boat preferably on land.
• Be sure your product is completely dry before storing.
• The products may be stored inflated, but do not place any heavy or sharp objects on it.
Hanging the boat is not recommended.
• Open all air valves including the keel’s and deflate boat completely. Remove all the
accessories from the boat; floor boards, seats and oars.
• Fold the boat from back to front to remove additional air. The boat storage bag is designed to
allow you to get your boat into the bag as easily as possible with minimal folds. Follow the
diagram below for the best folding procedures:
• Storage is best in a dry room. Ensure protection against rodents and other vermin, as they
feed on the fabric of the boat.
• Store the product and accessories in a dry, temperature controlled, between 32 degrees
Fahrenheit (0 degrees Celsius) and 104 degrees Fahrenheit (40 degrees Celsius) storage
location.

LEAK DETECTION AND REPAIR
AIR LEAK DETECTION
If your boat appears a bit soft, it might not be because of a leak. If the boat was inflated late in
the day with 32 °C (90 °F) air, that air might cool down to 25 °C (77 °F) overnight. The cooler air
exerts less pressure on the hull, so it could appear soft the next morning. If there has been no
temperature variation, you need to start looking for a leak:
• Take a good look at your boat from just a few feet away. Flip it over and closely check over the
outside. Any large leaks should be clearly visible.
• If you have an idea where your leak is, use a mix of dishwashing liquid and water in a spray
bottle, and spray over the suspicious areas. Any leak will produce bubbles that will pinpoint the
location of the leak.
• Check valves for leak, if necessary, spray soapy water around the valve and the valve base.
SMALL REPAIRS
Inadvertent punctures can be repaired using included vinyl repair patch and vinyl glue. You can
also purchase additional PVC or silicon based glue for repairing camping mats, tents or shoes
from your local market to patch your boat. Please refer to the instruction of the glue for patching.
1. Thoroughly clean and dry the damaged area. Completely deflate the product.
2. Cut a portion of the patch to cover the puncture and allow an additional 1/4” on all sides.
Always cut a round patch, never leave square corners.
3. Be sure the repair area is completely dry.
4. Apply generous coat glue to the vinyl repair patch and to the product.
5. Allow the glue to dry for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the glue becomes tacky.
6. Apply the patch to the product, using your thumb or finger; apply even pressure across the
entire surface of the patch. Make sure the edges of the patch are pressed down along the
entire diameter.
7. Allow the product to dry for at least 12 hours before inflating and using.
If there are large tears/cracks, please bring the water craft or any essential equipment part into a
professional repair shop for appropriate repair or replacement.
