Vapor 10 Hatch Installation
-
Position your Vapor 10 Kayak in a flat upright position and center the Vapor 10 Hatch(A) over the hatch opening
-
Using the hatch lip as a guide, drill two holes with a 1/4” drill bit into the kayak hull at a slight angle.
-
Knot one end of the Hatch Rope(C) and run it up through one of the newly drilled holes. Stretch it over to and down through the other hole. Tie a knot in the end of it. Both knots should be located inside the hull.
-
With the cover centered over the hatch, insert the Hatch Hinges(D) into each side of the cover. Use the hinges as a jig to drill out the rivet holes with a 13/64” Drill Bit.
-
Insert the Cherry Rivets(B) into each hole and while pressing down on each Hatch Hinge, pop the rivets with your Rivet Gun.
Note: If the rivet does not break flush, use pliers to bend the post back and forth to break. Then file any burrs smooth with a small Hand File.
- Your Vapor 10 Hatch Cover Installation is complete!
