We will be happy to advise you on your individual needs.
If you start directly from the car or camper, you can of course also use a conventional air or electric pump.
Our Alligator 2S Pro, Barracuda R2 Pro and Nomad S1 are equipped with an ISS.
ISS stands for Internal Storage System. By means of a TZip you can fill the side tubes with luggage using two supplied pack sacks.
If you use the ISS or the stern for storage, we recommend our Anfibio DeckPack as an additional bag for the bow.
The Nano RTC offers as an option a roll closure integrated into the tube at the end of the packraft.
Ideally, you should put the packraft in the water for 10 minutes before launch and pump it up again. If you are traveling in pairs with the packrafts, you can use the supplied hand pumps to pump each other's packrafts on the water.
Please list the damage on the enclosed checklist before returning the Packraf.
After use, clean the packraft and accessories with clean water.
Apart from that you don't have to pay attention to anything else.
The boat should not be fully inflated when cleaning, otherwise the possible dirt and sand stuck in the cracks is difficult to clean.
Please pack the rental boat in dry condition for return.
The supplied TrekPack user manual provides you with the most important steps in handling the packraft and accessories.
Avoid waters where you cannot assess the dangers. You should be able to swim safely in the water. Familiarize yourself with the equipment supplied before your first trip.
Inform yourself about all legal regulations, especially the respective navigation regulations. In the context of the renting only waters may be navigated, which do NOT belong to the inland waterways and coastal waters! A detailed list of the waters (sections) that are not to be navigated can be found on the homepage www.wsv.de.
If you want to go with your rental boat into the white water, we recommend you a suitable life jacket with at least 60 N buoyancy force as well as additionally a white water helmet. WILDWATER SET - click here...
The buoyancy aid described in the scope of delivery (order without whitewater set)does not meet these requirements.
The use of boat slides is prohibited.
For air travel, the backpack must be packed in a separate protective cover.
