ACK Review
When getting your kayak on the roof of your car becomes to much for 1 person the hullavator is the way to go. If you see it done once you will buy it. Once you have bought it you will tell all your friends.

Review: They are a substantial help to loading and unloading two kayaks. When loading make sure the chrome installation pins are rotated down. They want to flip up and push out a bit keeping you from rotating the kayaks onto the roof. I wish the pins were easier to take out and install making it easier to take the Hullivators off when not in use and putting them back on.

Review: Awesome !!! I sold my truck and had to use my Honda Element for yak transport. I go by myself a lot and there was no way for me to lift my ride 135 on to the roof. It was just to high and the ride is around 70lbs. This made it easy. I only have to lift the yak just above my waist and the just use the hullivator to ease it on to the roff. Did I say , AWESOME !!!! It was also easy to install.

Review: It looks like it costs a lot. I could have saved money just by getting it first. Don't settle, you only have one back.

Reviewer: Bayou Shuttle Service Rating: 5 Date: 11/09/2010
Review: From a small white water kayak to a large tandem kayak, the Hullavator can handle it. We purchased the Hullavator for one of our smaller shuttle vehicles. We have already loaded and unloaded in just a short time many different models of kayaks with the Hullavator. It is a huge time saver and we Highly recommend it to anyone and everyone.
