  • Does Inno Locker Watersport Carrier # INA446 Have a Weight Capacity
  • The Inno Locker Watersport Carrier w/ Crossbar Pads # INA446 that you referenced weighs a total of 13 lbs but actually does not have a weight capacity since the crossbars of your vehicle are what would be carrying the weight of the kayak. So basically this does not have a weight capacity and the number you saw happens to be the overall weight of the rack.

  • How Many Kayaks Fit in the Lockrack Adjustable Watersport Carrier?
  • Happy to help! The Lockrack Adjustable Watersport Carrier item # LR24VR only fits one kayak so you would need two of them. They measure anywhere from 23-3/4" wide to 43" wide depending on how wide your kayak is. You would need to take some measurements of your kayaks to see if you would be good with the standard 59" Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars item # RRVA150B-2. Or needed to go with the longer 65" Vortex Aero Crossbars item # RRVA165B-2. Here are the other parts you'll need to add...

  • Does the Jawz2 V-Profile Crossbar Mounting Brackets Have 4" Center on Center Measurements
  • I took a look at the Replacement Jawz2 V-Profile Crossbar Mounting Brackets for Malone Watersport Racks # MAL66TR and on Malones website, it appears that the # MAL66TR does have 4" center-of-the-hole to center-of-the-hole spacing. The # MAL66TR mounting brackets are specifically designed to be used with Malone watersport carriers except the MPG121. They will work with crossbars up to 3.5" wide and 1.25" tall.

  • Size of T-Bolt in Thule Xadapt12 Watersports Adapter for AeroBlade and AeroBlade Edge # THXADAPT12
  • The Thule Xadapt12 Watersports Adapter for AeroBlade and AeroBlade Edge Bars, # THXADAPT12, contains 4 - M6 x 22mm T-bolts and nuts. The Replacement Square Head Bolt for Thule Flat Top Ski and Snowboard Carrier, # 853208904, is a M6 x 13mm T-bolt so this is not the same bolt that is included with part # THXADAPT12.

  • Available Rooftop Canoe Carriers for Use on Vehicle Roof Rack
  • The various versions of the Thule Hullavator, including the Hullavator Pro # TH898, are not meant for use with canoes, just with kayaks. This version has a 75-lb weight capacity and accepts kayaks up to 36-inches wide. This load-assist carrier does not have the lifting capacity for the typically higher weight of a canoe. A good high-value canoe carrier option from Lockrack is their Adjustable XL rooftop carrier # LR54FR. Although this does not offer the load assist it has a 175-lb weight...

  • Will the Erickson Lift Sling Hold 900 Pound Honda AquaTrax PWCs
  • The capacity of the Erickson watersport carrier lift sling # EM02000 is 1,000 pounds. A 900 pound PWC would be fine as long as it isn't carrying over 100 pounds of stuff or water! Please note this sling is designed for lifting only and not to support the PWC indefinitely.

  • What is the Weight Capacity of the Rightline Gear Kayak Carrier with Tie-Downs
  • The Rightline Gear Kayak Carrier with Tie-Downs # RL100K10 don't have a weight rating so you are limited either by the weight rating of your bare roof, or the roof rack that these will be installed on (which is usually 165 lbs). With that being said, if you plan on transporting your kayak very far or transporting it frequently then I do recommend using something a little more solid like the etrailer J-Style Kayak Carrier # e98878, Yakima BigCatch # Y04091, or the Lockrack Watersport Carrier...

  • Does Thule Compass Carrier Fit around Thule Wingbar Evo bars?
  • The Thule Compass Kayak and SUP Carrier # TH890000 is a great fit for your 2020 Honda Fit. It has a wide mouth to make it easier for loading kayaks. It also has nice adjustability like J-style for one kayak or post-style for two kayaks. I attached a screenshot where Thule gives instructions for installing it on your Thule Wingbar EVO crossbars. You need to use the 80mm bolts included with this carrier to install it onto your bars. For your older kayak carrier like the Thule Hull-A-Port...

  • What are the Dimensions of the Rhino Rack Load Stops for Aero Crossbars
  • You're pretty on the money, the Load Stops for Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars or Pioneer Platform Rack # RRRLH2 is 2.76" long, 1 1/2" wide and 5" tall. As for use with canoes you aren't actually going to be able to use these to secure your canoe because they aren't going to offer enough support and stability, so I'd actually recommend using the Lockrack Adjustable XL Watersport Carrier - Canoe, Kayak, or 2 SUPs # LR54FR instead. This carrier can be slid into the t-slots on your aero...
