13. Attach the under seat apron.
The under seat apron has a rip-and-grip tab
opening on one side. This allows for installation.
Install with this tab facing up and to the rear of
working from the front, fit the apron seat hole
around the bottom of the seat. Reattach the rip-
and-grip tabs at the back of the apron.
To secure, wrap the rip-and-grip tabs around the
pontoon frames at the positions indicated by the
arrows in the drawing above. Finish by hooking
the four elastic shock cords on the back of the
apron to the wire cargo rack.
16. Attach the rod holder.
The rod holder may be placed in three different positions on
either the left or right oar lock frame. You can hold your rod
to the back (1), out to the side (2) or to the front (3). The rod
holder attaches with the clevis frame pins as in step 8.
To use the rod holder first unwrap the rip-and-grip strap on
the end. Put your rod in the holder butt end first then turn it
to drop the reel handle into the cutout on the side of the rod
holder. Keeping one hand on your rod use your other hand
to wrap the strap around the front of the reel to secure your
rod in place in the holder.
15. Attach the anchor system.
The anchor system consists of a mesh weight bag and a length of
cord threaded through the frame (step 9).
The bag is filled with rocks or metal weights (not included). Usually
six to eight lbs. will keep you anchored in a light breeze but the
weight needed will vary depending on your weight, your cargo
weight, currents and wind.
There are built-in cleats on the inside of each pontoon frame
behind the front anchor cord pulley. Thread the cord around the front anchor cord pulley and back to the cleat. Thread the
cord in the front and out the back of each cleat. To cleat the cord while anchoring, simply pull the cord into the jaws of the
cleat. Pull up and away from the cleat jaws to release.
If the anchor cord cleat or the anchor cord pulleys ever loosen, use the included allen wrenches to tighten.

14. Set up the oars and oar stops.
First, assemble the two piece oars. Align the holes so that the button
pops through the oar handle.
To set an oar in an oar lock drop the thinnest section of the oar into
the oar lock. Slide the oar until the oar stop rests against the oar lock. The oar stops are adjustable if desired.
You will find oar rests at the back of the pontoons. These are useful for keeping the oars up and out of the way when
they’re not needed.
