(H) so it can be easily reached. Fig # 4. For Ocean Kayak Sit on Tops you need to install this on the Right Hand Side of
the Boat Fig # 4 Ocean Kayak.
4. Drill your holes for this second Pad Eye as you did in Step 2. Insert AA611D (C) rivets through this second Pad Eye and
into the boat. Add a Deck Washer (E) to the underside of each rivet, inside the boat and pop rivets as you did in Step 2.

important that the Jam Cleat is in line with both pad eyes as you want your pulley line to be as straight as possible. With
the high point of the cleat facing the Bow as shown in Fig# 6, Using your cleat as a jig drill the holes with a 13/64 “ bit.
