Description

The Thule Hull-A-Port Kayak Rack offers a new slant on the kayak rack. The unique J-style carrier gets your ocean or whitewater boat on its side, freeing up room on the roof for a second kayak, a bike or any gear you can rack.

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. For better fuel economy and more overhead clearance, choose the PRO Hull-A-Port. It's design allows it to fold down when not in use. Both Hull-A-Port models boast 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.

I purchased two sets of these. Use them on a 2011 Honda Pilot to haul two old town vapor 10 kayaks. The carriers securely held both kayaks and I did not worry when traveling.

Easy to assemble and put on your roof rack. THe "PRO" model was definitely worth the extra $ as it is nice to have the option of folding down the carrier when driving around town or even getting into the garage. Surprised more people don't get it.

This carrier was so easy to install and is really good quality. It fit my RAV4 perfectly, and on a 3 hour trip I just took up north the kayaks were very sturdy and didn't move an inch on the highway. I'm glad I spent the extra money for the fold down feature. Very happy!

The Thule Hull-A-Port Kayak Carriers are high quality carriers. I use mine on my minivan and they easily attach to my van's factory roof racks. It only takes a few minutes to install or remove. I recommend these.

Love this carrier! I only wish I had known when I bought my first one that there were carriers that folded down. It's now moved into my number one slot when only carrying one kayak! It's easy to install and use!

After trying similar Yakima kayak carriers, I decided to spend more money and get the Thule. Autoanything'a price was considerably less than REI and included free shipping. It is definitely the right choice. Autoanything is a great company to deal with. I ordered my carriers on a Wednesday and had them on Friday. Can't beat their service.

These carriers will carry a very large tandem kayak. Mounting and securing the kayak has not been an issue at all. These are mounted a little farther apart than most as I am using them on an old boat trailer convert for kayaks. This works like a charm as it is too difficult to lift the tandem on top of our vehicle.
