“I Thank you and my back Thanks you! Ok... maybe the Price is a little steep but I was weighing out the options of buying a trailer just for the kayak and this was the cheaper way to go. Definitely watch the videos on how to raise and lower, it is a bit of a learning curve. But once you know it works like butter. I am putting a kayak that is heavier than the Hullavator is rated for. It’s a Wilderness Systems - pamlico 160T w/rudder (weight 88lbs.) I had no issues fitting it in the Wider cradles. And for being an over weight kayak the Hullavator was a GREAT assist, it seems to handle it with ease. As for Rack Attack - this is my second Thule roof rack I bought from them them. I have one for 3 - bikes and one for the kayak. Couldn’t be Happier worth every penny”

“If you have a kayak and it goes on top of your vehicle, buy this. Makes the loading and unloading a breeze. They do cost a lot but if you don't want to scratch your vehicle or get a hernia trying to load anything up high, this is the way to go.”

“Purchased this rack for ease of use and to improve independence in being able to load and unload my own boat following a spinal cord injury. I am no longer able to reach overhead and stand on the wheel well to load my boat much less to tie it down. This rack has been amazing so far!”
