Push the black buckle levers back while pulling and lifting the cockpit forward with your fingers. Bunny we not only sell Point65 kayaks we actually use them. We are avid lake, river and ocean kayakers here at GoingGreenTrading.com. We can answer any questions you have. Kayaks@goinggreentrading.com<br />The Mercury is far and away the best modular kayak Point 65 has produced so far. Fast and nimble!

Actually, the nose came off quite easily. It's the cockpit sections that are being VERY stubborn.<br />Bunnynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-774012317184597625.post-22316613925131818492012-10-27T02:59:33.321-07:002012-10-27T02:59:33.321-07:00The Martini was limited to open sea with waves up ...The Martini was limited to open sea with waves up to 3 feet. Could we expect the Mercury going over this limit? I have seen it is not for surfing but how does the Mercury behave on disordered sea condition 1.5m swell generating choppy waves due to proximity of rocks? Does it feel like a rigid plastic kayak or do you feel some undulation from separations?<br />Thanks Emmanuel<br />PS: I have contacted Armelle ;)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-774012317184597625.post-28689034688364230122012-10-26T02:58:38.914-07:002012-10-26T02:58:38.914-07:00Hi Sharon.
