With the Thule Hull-A-Port kayak rack, loading couldn't be easier. Just dump it on the padded cradle and cinch it down tightly and securely with the two provided ratcheting tie-down straps. The Hull-A-Port boasts all-metal attachment hardware and UV-resistant covering on the pads for long life. Your Thule Hull-A-Port Kayak Carrier is covered by a Lifetime Warranty.

"The Hull a port carrier is great but I had to purchase a Yakima rack to fit my Scion XA, Unfortunalty the Thule rack does not fit very well on it."

"When my girlfriend decided to purchase a kayak I had to have a means of transporting two kayaks as opposed to one. I purchased two of the Thule Hull-A-Port Kayak carriers which we installed on my vehicle the same day they arrived. The instructions were very clear and installation was easy. The carriers worked very well and we spent three days kayaking the waters of the Chesapeake Bay."

"Outstanding product! Extremely easy to use and works well both of my vehicles. I am very pleased that everyting you need to safely transport a kayak now comes in one box. I have now used the carrier at highway speeds and it could not embrace my kayak more securely. If you have been looking for a yak carrier, look no further and order the Hull-A-Port."

sturdy and easy to set up

Posted on 08/04/2006 by Marc O. (Manlius,NY)

"Even working by myself, I had no problem attaching the hull-a-port to the factory rack on my minivan and getting my kayak (recreational type, 9.5 ft, 35 lbs) up onto the hull-a-port and securely fastened. The trick with the minivan is to use a stepstool. I have not driven much with it yet, but I did test it out and was impressed by how secure the kayak appears to be in the rack, even at highway speeds."

"I have owned the Thule Hull-A-Port Carrier for 2 weeks and I am pleased to see how easy it is to load my 2 kayaks. My wife can load and unload her kayak with ease and without any assistance. The true test will be when we travel a long distance at the end of the summer. Thus far, we are pleased with the results."

Posted on 07/07/2006 by Jeff S. (Lewisburg,PA)

"This is our second Hull-a-Port carrier and is even better than the first one. The re-designed bar that attaches to the roof racks makes it even easier to mount and remove. There are now straps supplied to secure the kayak fore and aft to the vehicle. We find it a quick,easy to use and very secure mounting for transporting our boats."

"This is my first experience with cartopping kayaks and I have been pleased with my Thule Hull-A-Port. It is simple and effective. It would, however, help if Thule included a tolol to help turn the wing nuts."

Kayakers delight...

Posted on 04/14/2006 by Catherine S. (Fanwood,NJ)

"This carrier is one of a kind with its quality, efficiency, and durability. We placed these racks on top of our Explorer to pick up our new kayaks and loading was a breeze. We were amazed with the quality of this carrier. Thule thought of everything in the design, sturdiness, and even the straps. We will definately order another item from AutoAnything and with the Thule name attached. Thank you!!"

"This system is easy to put on your vehicle, works well and does allow you to carry lots of other stuff on your roof. It's easy to steal though(a thief has my first one), so I have to take it off whenever I paddle."
