How easily did it "overinflate"? Did you do it with a pump? Or did you leave it in the sun? I read some old messages here and JCOOLEY mentioned that it was quite difficult to overinflate the main tubes (I have a Convertible). I haven't thought much about overinflation, based on that comment. I use a...

Mmm................what did I do wrong? The image URL needs to be a link to an image. Your URL linked to a flickr page *not* an image. I clicked on your link and then clicked on the "share" button. The image URL was embedded in the BBCode link! I find ImageShack to be better suited to this use - th...
GPS on a camera? What kind? Our camera is a Panasonic DMC-ZS7. The GPS is great - works directly with iPhoto etc... If you take a picture with a later iPhone or many Android phones - they are automatically "tagged", as well. The waterproof camera with GPS that I saw was a Nikon AW100 (I think). Hav...

We've only been out a few times - but this is what I've found works well, so far: 1) small amount of air in outer tube (#1?) 2) small amount of air in inner tube (#2?) 3) install backbone and align 4) install floor 5) install deck 6) a little more air in outer tube 7) pressurize inner tube 8) inflat...

I've been getting in/out using my arms, putting my hands just behind the rear opening. The tubes are quite firm there - so I can lower/lift myself quite easily from that position. I think getting in/out of the front seat might be harder for me! My biggest complaint of the dual deck conversion - no s...

We picked up the convertible and accessories last Friday. We are very impressed with the build quality of it - we planned to use it over the weekend, but the weather didn't cooperate. We assembled it once and I bought a Bravo foot pump with a gauge and I'm going to put it together again tonight... W...

Never ever buy a kayak without trying it first is another "common sense" advice. We *may* be able to try it before buying it - but my options are extremely limited, due to the space constraints. So it's really a "beggars can't be choosers" situation! As long as it fits in the van, holds both of us ...

Thanks for the comments! After LOTS of reading - I'm pretty sure I've decided to buy a convertible. I think I'm going to pick up both spray skirts, as well. I've been reading about the Backbone - and was concerned about the length of it. Our van has very little storage for long items - so I thought ...
