Thule Hullavator Pro Kayak Carrier: The Ultimate Solution for Easy Loading and Unloading

The Thule Hullavator Pro kayak carrier is the perfect solution for those who want a hassle-free way to load and unload their kayak. Whether you're paddling in calm lakes or taking on challenging waters, this innovative kayak rack system ensures that you can manage the load on your own with ease. Designed with functionality and convenience in mind, the Thule kayak carrier supports up to 18kg of weight for effortless kayak loading and unloading.

Key Features of the Thule Hullavator Pro Kayak Carrier

1. Gas-Assist Struts for Effortless Loading:
The gas-assist struts are the heart of the Thule Hullavator Pro. These struts lift and lower the kayak with minimal effort, allowing one person to manage the kayak alone. Whether you need to lift your kayak onto the roof or unload it, the struts ensure a smooth and simple process every time.

2. Double Extending Arms for Convenient Loading:
The double extending arms allow you to lower the kayak up to one meter, making it easier to load or unload at waist height. This means you won't have to stretch or lift awkwardly, making it safer and less strenuous on your back.

3. Maximum Protection with Padded Touchpoints:
This Thule kayak carrier is designed to provide the best protection for your kayak. It features eight padded touchpoints that ensure your kayak remains secure and free from scratches or dents during transportation.

4. Rubberized Straps for Added Protection:
For added security, the Thule Hullavator Pro includes two 275cm straps with rubberized buckles. These prevent damage to your kayak and ensure it stays firmly in place during transit.

5. Durable and Corrosion-Resistant Construction:
Made with a combination of aluminum and double-coated steel, the Thule Hullavator Pro is built to last. The materials used make it resistant to corrosion, meaning your kayak carrier will perform optimally for years.

6. Suitable for Larger Kayaks:
The Thule Hullavator Pro can accommodate kayaks with a width of up to 80cm and a weight of up to 35kg. This makes it suitable for a wide range of kayak types, from lightweight models to heavier ones.

7. Bow and Stern Tie-Downs:
To ensure your kayak is securely fastened, this kayak carrier comes with Thule QuickDraw bow and stern tie-downs that keep your kayak stable at both the front and rear of your vehicle. This added feature enhances your kayak's stability during long trips.

8. Secure Fit with Roof Bars:
The Thule Hullavator Pro locks to the roof bars, ensuring the kayak carrier stays securely in place while on the road. It typically fits Thule Professional roof bars but can also be used with Wing Bars as long as there's a minimum clearance of 10cm beyond the roof bar feet.

9. Easy to Install:
The fittings provided with the 898 model are designed for compatibility with Thule Professional roof bars. The installation process is simple, and with a minimum distance of 600mm between the roof bars, you can easily attach the carrier to your vehicle.
