Specs:
Secure your kayak, canoe, stand-up paddleboard (SUP), or surfboard to the front or rear of your vehicle with this anchor strap. Just pair the anchor with a tie-down strap (sold separately). Tying down your boat helps prevent shifting during transport.
The padded anchor secures under the hood or hatch of your vehicle to provide a temporary mounting point for a bow/stern tie-down strap.
Thread a tie-down strap through the anchor loop and wrap it around your boat, board, or other long load.

This anchor fits under your hood or hatch and helps secure a kayak or other long load to your vehicle's roof when paired with a tie-down strap (sold separately). Great for vehicles without built-in tie-down points. 496 lbs Maximum load capacity.Received crossbars when promised. Installation was straightforward. Was missing a couple parts. Informed company and they responded quickly with replacement parts. Very pleased.
This works great you just really have to make sure the rack is on there very tight to where you can't pull it off with your hands. Also you have to strap it down so that it does not make the bars flex or they will loosen and cause problems.
All the Rhino Rack products listed, ie Nautic kayak carrier,anchor straps,2500 series legs,and Vortex crossbars were shipped extremely quickly by etrailer, with exceptional
customer assistance, and were all found to be of the highest quality materials.
Installation was relatively simple with an assistant and the video by Rhino Rack was
a valuable tool...once on my car, the system proved to be safe, secure and as
sturdy as I could hope for.
I would certainly recommend Rhino Rack systems in future, and will certainly rely
on etrailer for any of my future needs.
Highly Recommended. This was part of a complete solution including Aero Bars and DK Fit Kit for my Toyota Avalon. I was VERY impressed with the overall fit and sturdiness of the Rhino Rack Solution. The rack and installation is VERY well thought out. Also, the wind noise at 70 MPH is small.
Great product, but you have to be careful where you position it under the hood. The first time it slipped up the hood and the tie down loosened up. You need to check that it cannot slip out of position.
These work great for securing the front and back of my kayaks. I don't have to get up under my car any more and the straps aren't rubbing against my paint anymore. I looped the front one under the bug shield on my truck and it worked perfectly. And they stay secure.
Good quality and fair price
Super easy to use and install, held fast during 1400 mi road trip.

Haven't installed yet, but the anchor straps look very sturdy and as advertised.
I haven't actually used this yet but it is a genius solution to a simple problem - where to tie a boat on the front of a car. We travelled cross country through the windy prairies with two boats on top of a Forester and they were blowing all over the place. These ties (which appear to be very well made) would have saved us several stops and lots of worries. I am confident that they will perform admirably when put into service.
Works great. Happy with my purchase.
This was a gem. I mounted it on the opposite side of the car that the kayak was sitting to anchor it against wind. Highly recommend if you're vehicle is short on anchoring points.
One of the smoothest transaction that I have performed with my purchase from trailer, I would not hesitate to order again from this business.
Very pleased with the product. Everything fit easily, and Installation was easy. I also appreciate Katie M's help in making sure I received the right product for my 2016 Ford Focus. It will be perfect for transporting my bikes and kayaks.
Everything I have ordered from them has worked great arrived on time and been the best price I could find.
Well made and tie down straps are good quality.
etrailer is always the first place I go.
This is a well thought out product; well made and potentially quite helpful. My car, a VWGTi, unfortunaltely doesn't have a good place for it to fit so I can't comment beyond that.
This is an excellent product. I use it for long trips and it's extremely easy to install and fits in right under the hood of my Ford Expedition.
I love these for securing the stern of my kayak on our Yukon. No damage to the vehicle, very secure!
Does the job exactly as it's supposed to
Works great
Easy, fast, and as promised.
