Step 1: Preparing the Surface:
Fig.#1 Masking felt perimeter
14”
 Position canoe upside down in a clean, well-ventilated area out of
direct sunlight

Measure 14 inches from the edge of the black deck to the bottom of
the canoe and place mark. The narrow end of skid plate will start
here.

Lay one piece of the skid plate felt with the smoother side up on the
center of the bottom, using 2 small pieces of masking tape on each
end to hold it in place.

Mask 1/8” away from perimeter of the skid plate with tape – See
Fig.#1. Cut the small tape pieces and remove the felt.
