This Yakima carrier let you transport a kayak on your roof rack crossbars. Felt-lined saddles and padded rollers allow easy loading from the rear of vehicle and provide maximum stability and protection. Universal mount. Tie-downs included.Looks good. Fits good. My truck is tall. I am small. The rear roller rack makes loading the kayaks easy enough. I have not traveled with them yet.
The rollers with the saddles work perfectly for loading and unloading the kayaks. My only complaint is that the screw clamps either vibrate loose or do not grip the rack well. They have fallen off a couple of times, luckily, they fell into the bed of my truck.
Product was as described. Easy rolling it onto the roof of my Subaru. Great customer service. Like that you include all the necessary straps too. Thank you!
This roller and pad setup allowed me to get a 68 lb kayak on and off my car by myself. Could not do that with the Jlow racksI
Just got these in the mail. They fit the stock rack on my 02 Subaru outback great and feel extremely durable. I have a very wide and heavy Jackson kayak Big Rig and I feel these will hold it great. Prior to these I trailered it or struggled to get it on the roof. Just roll it up there and secure it. This was the best product for me as all the other racks are so dang light and flimsy. Furthermore this was the best price I could find and I'm lazy and don't want to order the products separate. One and done and you save $ Great buy!
Kit comes as advertised, easy to set up and use
This worked GREAT on my 2015 Outback with factory installed roof racks. Right out of the box I installed the SKS lock cores (purchased separately) clamped them on, locked them down, added my kayak and I was off for a day on the river. Just a matter of minutes to install everything. Highly recommend.
Good carrier set! It's easy to load and holds the boat securely, even our big 14 foot tandem ocean kayak that weighs 75 pounds. The cinch straps are easy to handle and the clips for the loose end of the strap holds it nicely. For anyone trying to decide whether to get the rollers, I would say they do make a modest difference in the ease of unloading. Two sets of saddles would also do the job.
My only complaints are:
1) the bow and stern tie straps don't come with clips to hold the loose end of the strap. I use a binder clip, but people poke fun at me for it.
2) It seems like for this price locks should be included....
Keep in mind this rack takes up most of the space on an SUV roof, so if you need to carry two boats at once, consider J-racks instead.
High quality as expected from Yakima.
I bought these for hauling my wife's kayaks on Yakima's Overhaul rack system. Super easy to use and remove when we're not hauling the kayaks around. Highly recommend.
Solidly engineered and manufactured. My racks arrived in a few days. Worked well for my kayak.
This was my second large order from Etrailer.com and my wife I are VERY pleased! Our first order was a Curt 5th wheel hitch which performed as advertised - so easy to use.
Now we haul our 5th wheel camper and that takes up my entire full sized F250 truck bed which in turn messed up hauling the kayaks back there. I was leaning toward rigging something up on the back of the camper, saw lots of posts on how to many looked very sketchy. Rather than risk dumping our two $$$ fishing kayaks onto the highway.... somewhere..... we bought this GREAT Yakima roof rack system for the TOP of my truck cab. You see, it made me uneasy that I wouldn't be able to keep an eye on our boats if strapped to the back AND we read about many horror stories not limited to the rear bumper falling off from fatigue. Yakima Install; I'm a General Contractor and fancy myself a pretty handy guy so mounting the towers, the rack bars, and all of the accessories onto those took a total three hours. [on-line] videos very useful and follow the easy to read instructions that come with each part and you'll have NO trouble. I have to add, etrailer said it would take one week but I received the complete order within four days. Thank you etrailer for making the ordering through delivery experience so very streamlined!
i use with yakima big catch on top of cargo van
rollers work great to help get my 12 foot top water on the roof alone.
the other part works great to hold the front of kayak in place.
First of all, 5 stars to etrailer as usual. They are amazing. I purchased a Yakima kayak rack, actually 2 and have installed them both on the Jeep roof. Both fit great. Great product that fit my situation. I have bought Yakima products in the past, always great fit form and function. I highly recommend both etrailer and Yakima products.
These look amazing and look forward to loading my kayak easily on them. Super easy to install and have a round fit for the Yakima round crossbar. LOVE their products!
Purchased a Yakima kayak carrier with rollers. Yakima produces a quality product, but it is a bit pricey.
Received my order in just a few days! Thank you. Also wanted to let you know I enjoy your videos that you post about how to use the products that you sell
Easy to set up. Kayaks fit well on these carriers. I will be observing durability.
Appearance is as described on the website, fits the 2007 Gmc envoy factory cross bars. Planning to load Hoodoo 120p kayak this weekend to test for fit and function.
Fast shipping
Easy to adjust
Everything is what I expected! Works great! Looking at buying other items from them !!!
I'm a 65 yr. old female with a 42 lb kayak. This is the easiest loading system I have used.
Extremely well made, very easy to install. My Hobie Outback rides beautifully on them.
Do you have a question about this Watersport Carrier?

Still working fine. Helpful in loading either a hard kayak or our new inflatable.
