6. Kayaks are vehicles too! Please treat them with care - just like you would to your own vehicle! 

• Fish too near to kelongs -> These are properties of others and under the regulation of SFA (Singapore Food Association) and you are not allowed to board the kelongs without permission. Also, the mussels and barnacles near the kelong ropes can damage/scratch the kayak's outer structure. 
• Leave your bait and food in the hatch of the kayak
• Leave any rubbish in the kayak -> kindly throw in a plastic bag and into a proper rubbish bin after you reach shore. 
• Throw rubbish into the sea (Save our oceans!)

*Please try to take good care of all the equipment you are handling, be it the kayaks, the mirage drive feet operated system, kayak rudder, nets - we will try our best to cover some of the costs for small and minor items but there may be a replacement fee levied if any of the major items/parts are damaged beyond repair.
