Update - New straps - Straps too short

Update - The company has sent us new straps. Cooperation was very easy and they were more than happy to solve the problem. Dylan was a pleasure to deal with. The straps that come with it are too short. There is no way we can supply 2 kayaks with what was in the box. This was really disappointing as we had to put our trip on hold to figure out what to buy and buy so we could leave. In addition, the additional costs were low. The stand itself seems fine. I didn't have any other version so there's

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Ugly packaging

Dangerously unreliable

I have had saddles and other J bars and was very excited about this product because it looked sturdy, folded away when not in use and had strap guides to secure the kayak. On first use we found that it was not possible to secure the kayak with feeder rails in the J-Bar and turned to a guide that made no mention of attempting to secure the kayak in this manner. While sailing, the spinner locks to the rods that were released while sailing, so the straps are released and the kayak is no longer…

Pros
  • good thing
Cons
  • big and bulky

Attention - not safe - stands for kayaks, canoes and SUP

Too bad the starts were negative. This transfer looked great once set up quick and easy. nope We have an Explorer and the bolts around the cross members are very long they almost touch the roof and we have a 2nd row glass roof so that didn't suit me. We bought a plastic tube from a hardware store to cover the bottom of the screws. Then the straps aren't long enough for a regular 10ft kayak, we only had a few inches to pull the strap down but we managed. Just in case, we've made "real" straps…

Pros
  • The best
Cons
  • I don't remember

Great carrier for two kayaks

I like dual use. It may have one or two kayaks. I've found that our ocean kayaks work best when they both face the same direction (one with the seat in and the other with the seats out). We used an extra strap to tie them together when they were up for extra stability. They stayed in moderate winds and 65 mph back and forth for an hour (with the help of a partner) and tie down both kayaks on top. It comes with easy-to-follow instructions. I highly recommend it to anyone who asks!

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Clarity

Finally no more sand in my trunk!

I have purchased other BougeRV products and have always been impressed, this is definitely no exception. removing a pile of sand from my cargo hold and dealing with the incessant squeaking (because I couldn't close the hatch) like he used to do when riding in my trunk. The only extra item I need to take with me now is a ladder to make loading and securing my kayak to this rack easier. When they say it takes 10 minutes or less to install, they mean it. The only tool you might need, as I…

Pros
  • Beautiful packaging
Cons
  • New competition has arrived

Beautiful, strong, easy to install.

I ordered this kayak holder to match my 2021 Honda Pilot's BougeRV bars. The kayak holders were packed in a sturdy cardboard box and the two holders were enclosed in a thick plastic bag. The third pocket contained four straps to attach the kayaks to the mounts. The base of the holders is made of thick aluminum and looks solid. No loose parts to assemble. Two plastic-coated metal plates are used to attach the kayak holder to the crossbar. Installing these plates under the crossbar and tightening

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Concealable
