Sea Eagle Sport Kayak (SE 330, SE 370) - Manual (Page 10)

Diaphragm Check
Check the black di-
aphragm at the bottom
of the inner valve for
grains between the di-
aphragm and the inner
valve. Also check the
threads on the inner
valve, boat hull, and
outer cap for any dirt or
sand which might break
the seal.
Skeg Straightening
If for any reason (most
commonly being that
the boat was folded too
tightly) your skeg(s) be-
comes bent there is an
easy solution to
straightening it out.
Using a hair dryer,
warm up the skeg until
the curve becomes soft.
This should only take a
about 2-3 minutes on a
normal setting. Once
the skeg(s) is soft you
can then straighten it
out by hand.
Repairs
Although our Sea Eagles are very rugged and tough, you
may still experience the occasional puncture through use of
your boat. Fortunately most repairs are fairly easy and only
take a few minutes.
For an extensive repair please contact us directly for assis-
tance or a quote to have it sent back and repaired at our
facility. Repair fees start at $75.00 and do not include return
shipping charges.
Repair Kit
All Sea Eagles come
standard with a repair
kit which includes two
material patches and
tubes of PVC based
glue.
PVC Based Glue
For repairs on our boats
you will need to use a
PVC based glue. We
suggest this 12 oz. can
of Vyna Bond if you
need more glue than
what comes standard in
the repair kit.
Repair: Pinholes
Deflate your boat and
thoroughly clean and
dry the area that is to be
repaired. For small
punctures less than 1/8”
apply a small drop of
glue and allow 12 hours
to dry.
For immediate use
allow 30 minutes to dry
and then inflate the
compartment with the
repair only 3/4 full and
be sure to make a more
permanent repair later.
