Plain-English summary
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is recalling approximately 700 NRS Manta Surfer River Boards and LL Bean Body Boards. These inflatable water boards, measuring 41 inches long by 24 inches wide, were sold nationwide through NRS and LL Bean catalogs from February 2006 through August 2006 for about $55. The NRS board is black, red, and blue with the NRS logo, while the LL Bean board is black, yellow, and blue with the LL Bean logo. Item numbers 1869 (NRS) and 41869 (LL Bean) are printed on the tag sewn into the bottom seam near the inflation valve.
The recall is issued because the safety warning label containing precautionary information on proper use and operation was not affixed to the devices. The missing label should read: "CAUTION: This is not a lifesaving device. Never leave children unattended in or near water." The boards were manufactured in China and distributed by NRS of Moscow, Idaho.
No injuries have been reported in connection with this recall. Consumers should immediately affix the provided label to the device as directed. For more information or a copy of the warning label, consumers should call NRS at (800) 635-5202 between 6 a.m. and 7 p.m. PT Monday through Friday, or visit nrsweb.com. Consumers with the LL Bean device should call LL Bean at (800) 555-9717 anytime, or visit llbean.com.
