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: | It works as advertised. Makes throwing a kayak on a tall vehicle a breeze. Austin Kayak had the best price and shipped it to MI same day. Hull support could be better designed. It consists of 2 fairly hard pads on both front and rear, not enough support for a hardchined kayak and could damage the hull if the user didn't add additional hull support in the form of foam blocks. Low volume kayaks also need a foam block on rear deck in order to strap the boat down. I also have a concern about the size of the bolts used to hold the apparatus on the bars. I could be wrong but they don't look heavy duty enough for the long haul and could fail. It's something that should be checked periodically. | ||||

| Review: | Hullava Nice Product! We bought two, one for each side of our Chevy Tahoe, which is too high to use other racks without a ladder. My wife and I are not tall people. Now our kayaks pull down with very little effort to waist/chest height. | ||||
