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

assistance 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 this repair

kit which includes both

PVC patches and PVC

glue. Repair kits that

are included in boat

package purchases also

include the recessed

valve adapter and valve

wrench.

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.

Repair: Patching

Leaks larger than a pin-

hole can be patched.

Most patches can be

done in a few minutes,

but we do offer a repair

service for more com-

plex jobs out of war-

ranty.

Using a ball point pen,

trace the outline of your

patch which should be

large enough to overlap

the damaged area by

approximately 1/2”.

Angle the pen inward a

bit so that the ink will be

covered by the patch

later.

Ap ply ad he sive to the

dull side of the patch

and around the area to

be repaired. Coat the

affected area lightly but

completely with glue.
