. Place the kayak onto the Blocks so that it
is aligned and the weight of the kayak is
evenly distributed on each Block.
See image 2.
Step 1: Attaching Blocks to Kayak
. Unroll the 9’ Block Straps. Thread each one
through the cut-out in the bottom of each
Block. For installation without cross bars,
the Blocks should be placed so that they are
spaced apart 1/3 of the total length of the
kayak. For installation with cross bars, the
Blocks should be spaced apart the same
distance as the distance between the front
and rear cross bars. See image 1.
. Tighten the two Block Straps so that kayak
and Blocks are firmly cinched together.

each block fully inserted over each bar, and loosely add the
load straps around the cross rails. See image 1.
2. Place the kayak onto the Blocks so that it is aligned and the
weight of the kayak is evenly distributed on each Block. See
image 2.
3. Place the strap loops over the kayak so that each loop is
positioned directly over a foam block. Pull the free end of each
strap down until the buckles are positioned half way up the side
of the kayak. Thread the free strap ends around the cross rail
and back through the buckles. Pulling down to tighten.
