"J" Style Carrier Design for Easy Side Loading and Unloading
------------------------------------------------------------
The SportRack SR5511 "J" Stacking Kayak Carrier features a simple
and exceptionally stable design, consisting of two "J" shaped
stacking elements, two heavy-duty side tie-down straps, and
tie-downs for the bow and stern of your boat. The stacking
elements connect to roof rack crossbars in seconds using a
combination of bolts and knobs. The resulting hold is secure, and
allows for easy adjustment along the roof rack when using
additional roof rack accessories. To load kayaks, simply lift
them into place, with the cockpit pointed out. The three
rubberized contact points of the carrier elements protect the
exterior of kayaks from incidental damage, and hold them in place
as they are secured. Kayaks are cinched between the tops of the
stacking elements and rack crossbars using side tie-down straps.
Bow and stern straps secure the kayak at the front and rear of
the vehicle.
"J" design requires no adjusting, and rubberized contact points
protect boat exteriors.
