Opti Airbag Tips & Advice
- Airbags can last a long time if taken care of properly.
- Removing airbags from the boat when traveling or in the off season helps extend their lifespan.
- Avoid over-inflating the bags as this puts extra pressure on the seams.
- When storing, roll the bags rather than fold them.
- Temperature changes are the number one cause of failure (transitioning from cold water to hot temps on land). Reducing air pressure when the boat is on land in the sun will help minimize this issue.
