TOOLS REQUIRED: Drill with 13/64” bit, Pliers, Rivet Gun, File, Scissors, Marking Pencil, Tape
Measure
Before getting started we recommend sorting out and separating the parts for easy access during assembly.
1. On top of the Stern Deck of the kayak, measure 1” toward the Bow from the Stern Tip. Set Pad Eye (B) centered at the 1”
measurement. Use your pad eye as a jig to drill your holes with a 13/64” drill bit as shown in Fig# 1.
For Ocean Kayak Sit
on Tops, the Pad Eye (B) may have to be placed off to the right side as some models have rudder catchers on the Stern
Deck. It is important that you install the Anchor kit on the right hand side of this boat so it will not interfere with Rudder
Lines that run down the left hand side of the boat. Fig. #2

2. Insert Star Rivets (D) as shown in Fig# 3 they have narrow slits in the rivet and they are about ¼” shorter than the cherry
rivets. With a Rivet gun, pop the rivets. If the rivet does not break flush, grab the post extending out of the rivet with a pair
of pliers and wiggle back and forth until it breaks flush. If there is a jagged piece left, use your file to smooth it down.
For
Ocean Kayak Sit on Tops you will use Cherry Rivets (K) Cherry Rivets have the rings around the mandrel also their about
¼” longer than the other rivets as shown in Fig# 3.5
