inside the Pontoons to a dangerous level. Let some of the air out of the pontoons if the craft will be out of the water in the sun for
any length of time, or if it is stored in a vehicle, etc.
4. A gain in altitude will increase the pressure in the Pontoons also. If you are taking your inflated ODC 616from a low
elevation to a high elevation, be sure to let some of the air out of it.

other component damage.
