The owner can attempt small inflatable boat repair if factory gluing instructions are followed closely. Rips and holes larger than a thumb in the air chambers, or within two inches of a seam must be repaired with internal and external patches by a professional repair technician at a certified repair facility. A quick patch repair by the user could solve the problem for a short period of time, but it is recommended to have done by a professional.
It is also recommended that major inflatable boat repair, and the addition of large accessories such as oar locks, seating or towing rings, be done by a professional repair technician at a certified repair facility.
If the boat is still under warranty, and the user experiences a seam failure, or the wooden mirror separating the flanges or tube shaped mirror set, whether the substance is yellow and sticky, it is recommended that the dealer be contacted immediately. Defective seams or sticky substance can lead to complete warranty, and a new user boat free or for a small fee prorated.
