Section 1 – Inspection
Carefully remove the boat, boat stand and radio transmitter from the box. Inspect the boat
and make certain that no damage is present. If any damage is found, please contact the Pro
Boat retailer where the model was purchased.
Section 2 – Rigging Installation
1. Assemble the boat stand as shown and
use a wood glue or CA hobby glue to bond
the pieces together. Place the hull on the
stand.
2. Slide the upper and lower mast halves
together.
3. Slide the mast assembly into the fitting
on the top of the hull.
4. Carefully unroll the sails from the mast.
The main sail will be attached to the top
of the mast at the crane. The jib sail
(front sail) will be attached to the front of
the crane as shown.

Page 5
Section 2 – Rigging Installation
5. Locate the main sail boom. Slide the
screw through the eyelet and use a
Phillips screwdriver to secure the end of
the boom. Do not over tighten as the sail
boom will move as the sails are adjusted.
Apply a drop of threadlock on the nut and
thread it onto the screw from the bottom
of the boom mount.
6. Locate the end of the main sail marked
"G". Pass the line tied to the main sail
through the hole in the rear end of the
main sail boom. Pull the line until the
main sail is taut, and the distance
between the boom and sail is between
3/4-inch and 11/4-inch. Secure the excess
line by wrapping it around the cleat and
placing the end of the line in the notches
of the cleat.
7. Locate the other end of the main sail.
Pass the line tied to the main sail through
the hole in the boom mount. Position the
line so the distance between the boom
and sail is equal to the other side of the
sail. Secure the excess line by wrapping it
around the cleat and placing the end of
the line in the notches of the cleat.
Note: Do not adjust the tension of any
of the lines at this time. This will be
done in Section 4, “Adjusting the
Rigging Cables.”

Section 2 – Rigging Installation
8. Carefully unwrap the top, side rigging
lines.
9. Insert the side rigging line into the
outer hole in the spreader as shown.
10. Open the rigging clip and attach it to
the eye plate marked "C, D." Close the
wire clip.
11. Carefully unwrap the mid-line rigging
marked "D."
Note: The spreader has a small notch
in the outer hole. The inner hole will
not be used, making it easier to insert
the line. Simply push the rigging line
through the slot.
12. Open the rigging clip and attach it to
the eye plate marked "D." Close the wire
clip.
6
Page 7
Section 2 – Rigging Installation
13. Locate the jib sail boom. The end of
the jib boom with the cleat should be on
the top and nearest the front of the boat.
Pass the rigging line from the front of the
jib sail into the hole on the end of the
boom.
14. Position the line so the distance
between the boom and sail is between
3/4-inch and 11/4-inch. Secure the excess
line by wrapping it around the cleat and
placing the end of the line in the notches
of the cleat.
15. Repeat Step 17 for the other end of
the jib sail.
Hint: The jib boom will be parallel to
the bottom of the jib sail once Steps 17
and 18 are complete.
16. Carefully unwrap the bow rigging
cable marked "A." Attach the rigging cable
to the fitting at the bow of the boat
marked "A."
17. Carefully unwrap the stern rigging
cable marked "B." Attach the rigging cable
to the fitting at the stern of the boat
marked "B."

Section 3 – Main Sail Luft Ring Installation
1. Locate one main sail luft ring. Open the
ring and insert the small loop of the ring
through the eyelet in the main sail.
3. Repeat Steps 1 and 2 for the remaining
luft rings.
The rigging for the main and jib booms are
shown in the photos below.
2. Snap the luft ring around the main
mast.
8
Page 9
Section 4 – Adjusting the Rigging Cables
1. Locate the jib stay on rigging lines "C"
and "D" on either side of the boat. Pull up
carefully on the jib stay to adjust the
tension so there is no slack in the line.
Work slowly and adjust both lines so the
main mast is completely vertical.
2. Adjust the jib stay on the rigging line at
the bow "A" and stern "B" of the boat.
Tension the rigging lines so the mast is
perpendicular (square) to the hull of the
boat.
Section 5 – Transmitter and Receiver Battery Installation
Install 4 AA alkaline batteries into the radio
transmitter, following the instructions for your
radio system. Carefully place the sailboat hull
into the included boat stand, if it is not
already there. Next, remove the radio box lid
(scale cockpit) of the boat carefully, as it is
secured by magnets at the rear of the
cockpit. Locate and charge the power battery
pack for 2-3 hours, closely monitoring the
temperature of the pack. If it becomes warm
to the touch, immediately end charging.
Confirm that the receiver switch is in the
"off" position and that the sail servo arm is
not touching the power switch. Connect the
power battery. Secure the battery to the
battery box with hook and loop material.
N
ote: The radio box lid has been
removed for photography.
WARNING: Do not charge the battery
overnight or on or near flammable
materials.
For fast charging at the lake, The PRB1203
12V DC 6-7C Peak Charger can be purchased
separately.

Section 6 – Checking the Radio System
Turn on the radio system and test it to make
certain it is functioning correctly. First, turn
on the transmitter. Next, turn on the switch
that controls the receiver.
• Moving the right stick of your transmitter
will control the rudder. To turn to the right,
simply move the stick to the right, and the
rear of the rudder should also move to the
right. Do the opposite to turn left.
• Moving the left stick of the transmitter will
control the sails. By moving the left stick
upward, you will let the sails out. By
pulling the left stick down, you will tighten
the sails.
• Once the sails are pulled in, with the sail
control in the fully lower position, move the
sail trim adjustment toward the bottom of
the transmitter to operate the motor.
• When the radio system is working correctly
and the sails and fittings are properly
adjusted, you are ready to sail.
• After sailing, turn the receiver off before
turning the transmitter off.
Never sail with the sail trim adjusted to a
position that will allow the motor to turn on.
Note: The motor is for intermittent use
only. If you notice the power slowing,
stop motor use immediately and
recharge the battery. Continued use
will cause the radio system to lose
control.

Section 7 – Sailing Tips

Section 8 – Performance Tips
After you have finished rigging the sails, it
will be helpful to trim the sails in order to
optimize the performance of your boat. It is
often necessary to briefly sail the Endeavor in
order to see how the sails need to be
trimmed. This section covers hints and tips
for trimming your Endeavor for the best
performance. Remember to take your time to
optimize your sailing pleasure.
1. Check to make sure the main boom and
jib boom are in line with each other.
Adjust the jib stay at the top of the jib sail
to position the jib boom.
2. With the radio system on, move the left
stick on your transmitter "up" and
manually push the main sail and jib sail
open. You should be able to open the sails
to at least a 60-degree angle. If you
cannot do this, it will be necessary to
adjust the length of the line (allowing
more slack) by adjusting the jib stays
located underneath the main sail and jib
sail booms. See Section 3 Step 3 for
rigging adjustment locations
13
Page 14
Section 8 – Performance Tips
3. With the radio system on, move the left
stick of your transmitter "down" to close
the sails. The sails should close, with the
jib sail being tighter than the main sail.
There should be some slack left in the sail
rigging when the sail gimbal moves the
sails in. There should also be enough
movement to turn on the motor switch
when the trim adjustment is moved to the
lower fully trimmed position.
Replacement Parts
4. Bend the opening of each of the luft
rings after you have secured the main sail
to the mast, so they will not be pulled out
of the sail or from the mast.
