 down with  a towel.

 kayak  absorbing most of the water, then pack it up.

All kayaks come with a repair kit that includes glue and several patches.  This should remain 
with the kayak in the event that you may need it.  If service is required for your kayak, please call 
866-262-9076 for assistance.

3.    Make sure all surfaces are dry.
4.    In a well ventilated area, spread a thin layer of glue on both the patch and on the 
   damaged area.  Let it sit for three to five minutes or until tacky.
