and tightening the pontoon webbing attachment straps.
The goal is to find your balance point. When you are floating in the boat it should be level in the water.
12. Assemble the oars.
First assemble the two piece oars.
Then remove the cotter pins from the oar locks attached to the upper part of the oars and slide
the oarlocks into the brackets on the frame. Then adjust the rubber oar stops evenly on both oars for optimum rowing position.
13. The bladder repair kit. 
Included with your boat are 
tube patches to repair any tears or holes in
the pontoon bladders. We recommend storing these in one of the pockets to keep it available for repairs.
14. Do the final fitting and adjustments.
Sit in the boat on dry land and adjust the foot pegs and oar lock placement to your leg length and preference.
Float your Cimarron Pontoon Boat in shallow water. Push off, get seated comfortably, place your feet on the foot pegs and check to see if you are level in the water. (This is easier with a another person on shore). The goal is to find your balance point. When you are floating in the boat it should be level in the water.
Placing heavy cargo on the cargo deck may necessitate moving the seat forward.
If you need to adjust the seat or foot pegs bring the boat back to shore and make the needed adjustments.
Practice going forward and backward a bit to get comfortable. Then catch some fish and enjoy your boat!
