CONNECT-A-YAK SYSTEM
The Walker Bay
®
Connect-A-Yak
®
System is a very unique device to connect two or more
kayaks together, which is not available on any other kayak in the world. It allows you to
join Tender kayaks together for various purposes, or just for fun!
To connect two Tender kayaks, find the single connection loop at the bow of the kayak,
and the double connection loop at the stern.
Find the metal connection bar attached to
the double connection loops. Remove it
from the loops. Use water or soap water
for lubrication.
Align the stern of the front kayak with the
bow of the back kayak, so the connection
loops rest against each other. The single
connection loop should be placed right
between the double connection loops,
allowing the metal connection bar to go
through all 3 loops.

Kayaks do not come with this connection system, nor does any other kayak
manufacturer’s products in the market.
NOTICE
Use water or soap water to lubricate the metal connection bar, and insert it into all the
3 loops. It should be quite tight, and the bar will stay in place. Now the 2 kayaks are
connected.
To connect more kayaks, repeat the same process.
To disconnect, use water or soap water for lubrication, and pull the connection bar out
of the loops. It will be tight. Use the attachment cord to help pull it out. After it is
removed, attach it to the double connection loops at the stern so it does not get lost.
