Congratulations on purchasing a Sea Eagle!

With over 50 years of experience in designing, selling and using these quality

inflatables, we’re confident that you are going to love your Sea Eagle and we’re

ready to proudly stand behind them.

Decals, Stickers & Registration

Always contact your state boating authorities for information on boating registration and regulations.

Most states require you to register your boat if you are using a motor. (Please note, the Sea Eagle

PackFish7™ is rated for use with a 1 hp motor by the NMMA. However, there is currently no provision

for a motor mount.)

Upon registration it may be required to provide the Manufacturer’s Statement of Origin. Purchases made

through an authorized dealer or reseller may require for you to contact them directly in order to obtain this.

You may be charged your own state sales tax if you were not charged sales tax at the time of purchase.

Registered boats generally require the registration number to be applied to the boat. We do not

recommend the use of decals or stickers as they tend to crack and peel over time with the repeated inflation

and deflation of your Sea Eagle. Instead we suggest applying these numbers to a small piece of hard plastic

or marine plywood and hanging it from your boat like a license plate if permitted by your state.

Unlike many other companies today we pride ourselves on answering the phone and helping you with any

concerns, questions or special ordering needs that you may have! Feel free to give us a call at

1-800-748-8066 and we will be happy to talk with you! Our business hours are Monday to Friday from 9AM

to 5PM, EST.

Safety

In a manual of this type, it is impossible to give adequate space to the topic of water safety. For further information on

boating safety, visit USCGBoating.org or enroll in a water safety course given by a local provider.

It is your responsibility to be aware of and comply with all relevant safety regulations. For all water recreation or

sport, you should have reasonable swimming abilities. It is strongly advised that you should never go

boating alone.

General Boating Safety Tips

• Always wear a USCG approved PFD (life vest) at all times while on the water.

• Be aware of your local boating rules and regulations and abide by them accordingly.

• Check inflation levels each time before you go out and inflate your boat for a full 24 hours before undertaking long

trips.

• DO NOT allow children to use your Sea Eagle unsupervised.

• DO NOT consume alcohol while boating or operating a boat while under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

• DO NOT drag your Sea Eagle over rocks or gravel if it can be avoided.

• DO NOT exceed the certified maximum capacities of this boat under any circumstance.

• DO NOT go boating alone.

• DO NOT use compressors, CO2or compressed air for inflation, only use Sea Eagle recommended pumps.

• DO NOT use your Sea Eagle Boat as a personal flotation device as they are not rated for that use.

• DO NOT sleep inside of your Sea Eagle while on the water.

• Bring a cell phone or other emergency contact device in a waterproof bag.

• Always tell someone of your boating plans.

Safety Equipment & Important Safety Items

The type of water conditions you are on should determine the type of safety equipment that you should have on

board. For all types of boating we strongly recommend that every passenger wear a USCG approved PFD (personal

flotation device) like a life vest. In most places this is a requirement by law, but it is also an exercise of good judgment

to have a PFD for all passengers

Drinking Water & Snacks: Boating is a physical activity that can work up both a thirst and a sweat. On a hot or warm

day it is smart to have drinking water readily available to prevent dehydration. Bring an ample supply of water.

Extra Clothes/Layers: You never know when the weather can change and it’s a good idea to come prepared with

extra clothing. A dry (waterproof) bag will keep clothes dry in case of emergency.

First Aid-Kit: The contents of the kit may vary depending upon your preferences, but make sure to carry a kit that

reflects the possible dangers for the conditions you are in.

Manual Pump/Repair Kit: Although our boats are both durable and rugged, it may be possible that you need to

make a repair while on the water so you’ll need the repair kit and a manual pump to re-inflate the boat. If this is your

first repair, you may also want to bring this instruction manual with you.

Sun/Rain Protection: A hat can protect both your face and head from the rain or sun. Use and carry sunscreen with

you as both the sun and the sun’s reflection from the water can do serious damage to your skin. If you are out for

prolonged periods of time you may need to reapply sunscreen as needed.

Whistle: Having a whistle readily available is a great way to attract the attention of others if assistance is needed.

Float Plan: Similar to a pilot’s Flight Plan, consider having a Float Plan (www.floatplancentral.org). Always tell

someone where you are going to be boating and what time you plan to return. Keep a cell phone in a waterproof

container that will float if it falls in the water.

Boat valve adapter is

hook-in style which is

called Recessed Valve

Adapter.

The A42 foot pump comes

with a hose and several

adapters. A hook-in style

adapter is needed for

valves on the boat. The

push-in or the screw-in

adapter is used for seat

valves.

To open pump, release

pump clip by squeezing

the top and bottom halves

together. Unwind hose.

PackFish7™ | Foot Pump Set Up

Look for the ination port

which is marked “INFLATE”

with an arrow. Screw hose

into port tightly.

Note: Use the “DEFLATE”

port when you need to

pack your boat down as

compact as possible.

To inate boat, insert

recessed valve adapter into

hose. Push adapter in hose

and twist to lock.

To inate seat, insert either

the wide end or screw-on

adapter into the hose. Push

adapter in hose and twist

to lock.

PF7 is a low pressure boat, electric pumps are

not recommended. High pressure pumps will

not automatically shut o, and low pressure

pumps are not compatible with the valve type.

Warning: Air compressors that are designed for

other uses, like tire ination (usually around 32

PSI) can easily harm your Sea Eagle which works

at a much lower pressure. For this reason we

recommend only using Sea Eagle pumps.

Press and turn stem

counterclockwise so it can

pop UP. When the stem is

up, valve is closed and will

hold air. To let air escape

for deflation, press and turn

stem clockwise until locked

open.

Inflate safety chamber first

(front valve). With recessed

valve adapter in hose, push

and turn into valve

opening. Pump air until

chamber is full but not firm.

Twist hose counterclock-

wise and pull out. No air

should escape. Replace cap

in opening.

Valve has three parts,

a cap, valve body with

stem and a base which

is inside the air

chamber. Twist the valve

cap counterclockwise

and pull it out of

opening.

PackFish7™ | Assembly & Inflation

Select a at, hazard free area to unfold the boat.

PF7 kit: boat, backpack bag, pump, oars and inatable

seat with black valves and a repair kit.

PF7 has two air cham-

bers. Outside valve is for

the safety chamber, it is

a ring shaped chamber

above the main cham-

ber. The inside valve in-

flates the main chamber.

Inflate main chamber.

Pump until chamber is

firm and boat is rigid.

Insert floorboard after

inflating safety chamber.

Angled corners of board

go nearest rod holder

bases. Holes in board are

not used with PF7.

PackFish7™ | Inflation & Assembly

Deluxe Inflatable Seat

Seat has two cushion

bladders inside the cover

and requires two valves.

Seat straps clip to rings in

seat base. Seat base has

zipper for removing or

adjusting bladders if

needed.

Stretch retainer ring over

the valve base. Retainer

ring fits in a groove in

valve base.

If ring is too tight to fit:

stretch it, or heat ring

under warm water or with

a hairdryer to soften it.

Unscrew the cap. Screw

valve into base. Tighten

valve rmly so air does not

escape when sitting on

seat!

Insert wide push-in or

screw-in adapter into

hose. Push and turn

adapter to lock it into

hose.

Push or screw valve

adapter into valve. Inate

seat until comfortably

rm. The back bladder

can be fully inated, or

partially deated to give

more legroom.

Tighten valve caps

securely to avoid

deflation.

Oars

Each oar has a shaft,

retainer ring, and blade.

Left side oar has the Sea

Eagle logo top left. Logo

is top right on right side

oar. Retainer ring is a 2 ¼”

black rubber disk.

Slide retainer ring onto

shaft approximately 18”

from handle end.

Insert shaft into oarlock

up to retainer ring.

Pump until firm.

DO NOT over inflate the

tubes. Stop once you

can press your thumb

about 1/2” into the

tubes.

Slide blade onto shaft

and adjust until the

button pops up through

the hole.

To remove blade, push

button and pull blade

out of shaft.

Repeat assembly for the

other oar.

Backpack Transport

Straps (OPTIONAL)

The PackFish can be

carried backpack-style

while inated.

Attach the straps to the

D-rings on the bottom

of the boat.

Due to bulk and weight

of boat and accessories,

be cautious not to lose

balance or overexert

yourself.

To deate, push down on

the valve stem and quarter

turn it to the right. The

stem will stay in the down

position, allowing the air

to escape

PackFish7™ | Deflation, Folding & Storage

Remove boat bag from

its stow pouch

behind the seat.

Fold one side over the oor. The bottom should be

exposed 2-3 inches past the tracking strips.

PackFish7™ | Inflation & Assembly

Orient the curve of the

blades to cup the water on

the power stroke.

Pulling against the oars is

more ecient than

pushing them.

Caution!: When pulling,

you’ll be going backwards,

so check behind you

frequently for hazards such

as oncoming boats.

Two shing rod can be

carried in holders located

in the front of boat. Two

rods can be carried in the

hook & loop closure straps

on boat sides. Make straps

go between the pole and

line so rod cannot slip out

or loop.

Fold the other side over the rst side until the

tracking strips comes over 2-3 inches. Then begin

folding from back to front using the tracking strips

as guides.

PackFish7™ | Deflation & Folding

For nal folds, fold the front up and over the tracking

strips, then fold the back on top.

Slide the boat and accessories into the bag.

Boat and all accessories

t in the included

storage bag.

PackFish7™ | Storage

PVC can become brittle in cold temperatures. To avoid

damage, store in an area where sudden impacts are not

possible.

If leaving the Sea Eagle outside during boating seasons, keep it

raised off the ground and covered so that it is not exposed to

berries, leaves, rain, sunlight and other elements.

Sea Eagles that are left uncovered will have to be bailed or

pumped out from time to time. Accumulated rainwater can get

quite heavy.

Dry the boat and accessories before storing to eliminate

moisture that could cause mildew.

Choose a cool, dry spot when storing. Enclosed areas like a

basement, closet or garage should be ventilated or humidity

controlled.

Avoid excessive heat when storing. Do not store in an attic or

metal shed.

Rodent proof the storage areas. Mice can do a lot of damage.

Use a container with a tight lid, such as a clean garbage can or

large plastic bin.

PackFish7™ | Trouble Shooting: Air Leak

If your boat is losing air it doesn’t necessarily mean that it has a

hole. For instance a boat that is inflated late in the day with 90°

air may cool 20° overnight.

The cooler air will exert less pressure on the hull and the boat

will appear softer the next morning. When there has been no

variation in temperature and your boat is losing air then it is

time to start looking for the leak.

What causes an inatable to leak air?

Black Valve leaks: Usually caused by valve not screwed in tight

enough, retainer ring pinched between base and valve or a

dent in the base O-ring.

Recessed Valve: Use tool in repair kit to tighten valve. Works

best when chamber is inated.

Punctures can be caused by submerged metal debris, oyster

shells, barnacles, sh spines, dragging the boat over pavement

or concrete, exposed nails in docks, damage done in storage,

and other causes. Boats are usually not damaged by rocks,

sticks or sh hooks.

Seam leaks are the least likely cause of a leak. If a seam leak if

found, contact Sea Eagle customer service. Take photos of the

problem if possible.

Most repairs are simple and can be done with the repair kit and

a hair dryer (if available).
