AND LEAVE IT TO STABILISE FOR APPROXIMATELY ONE HOUR. THEN DEFLATE IT.

To make it easier to mount the tube, place some liquid soap in the hull rails (A).
2
Position the tube headline (a) in the hull rail (b) starting from the bow. Pull the buoyancy chamber to bring
it to the water guard near the transom.

Proceed in the same way for the other side of the tube.
The 2 protective flaps (sealing and exterior) should pass over the hull's nose.
