HOW TO STRAP A KAYAK TO A SET OF ROOF RACKS

ROOF RACK ACCESSORIES

STACKING

Step 1

Lay the Kayak Straps Over the Bars of the Roof Rack.

Thread each strap underneath and around each bar and let

the kayak straps lay flat against your vehicle. 

Step 2

Place Your Kayak or Canoe on the Roof Rack.

If you are tying the kayak directly to the crossbars of the roof rack,

place the boat upside down on the rack.

Step 3

Bring the Kayak Straps Over the Kayak.

Step 4

Secure the Kayak Straps.

Bring the other end underneath the crossbar and back up to meet the buckle. Thread

the kayak strap up through the buckle by pushing the button on the clamp and opening

a slot for the strap to fit through. Finally, pull the straps to take up the slack.

We stock two different kinds of mounting options for roof racks to make the kayak

more secure or fit more kayaks onto the roof at once.

J-RACKS

The typical use for the J-racks is to stand the kayaks up on

its side to make it easier to transport 2 or more kayaks.

KAYAKS2FISH UNIVERSAL KAYAK CARRIER

The main use of the universal Kayak carrier is to have a more

secure way to strap the kayak down to the roof racks without

having to worry about the roof rack scratching the kayak.

The NextGen 11.5 fishing kayak can be stacked with other kayaks.

Here is a good example of how they should be stacked.

It is recommended only ever stack the kayaks 3 high at any time.

Please check your roof rack weight capacity before attempting

to stack multiple kayaks.
