Frequently Asked Questions for KL Industries Boats











Pedal Boats     Top

  1. Where is the serial number located? The serial number is located in the back right hand corner on the outside of the hull. The number will be stamped on a silver plate, starts with HII and is 12 digits long.
  2. There is water inside my boat. Is this normal? Just like any boat, your boat may take on some water. Because of its’ flexible nature, a polyethylene boat is prone to accumulate a small amount of water between the deck and hull. Water may accumulate between the deck and hull due to rain, waves and condensation. This is natural, not a defect, and should be drained after use. Do not return to the retailer. Remove the drain plug located under bow rubrail and tip the boat up to drain. It is also normal for water to come out where the deck and hull meet if there is an excessive amount of water. Secure the drain plug (lubrication may be needed) after draining. Remove battery before draining your boat.
  3. How should I store my boat in the winter? Winter can be very hard on boats. We suggest a mooring cover, which prevents water and debris from accumulating.
  4. There is black oil coming out of my bushings and running into the foot well. Is this normal? After the first few uses you may see a black watermark down the inside of your boat. This is simply the paint on the crank inside the bushing wearing off. This is natural and can be cleaned with warm water and any standard detergents.

  5. What type of motor do I need? A standard short shaft is required. Pro & Sportfisherman 120's will plane with a 9.9 or 15 hp motor. They may or may not plane with a smaller motor. Trolling motors of at least 28 lbs thrust are adequate to move the boat into position.
