The ShowBoat Kayak and Canoe Roller System from Yakima




    The Yakima 4040 ShowBoat Slide-Out Roller System beats all other kayak and canoe roller systems hands down. It's wide enough to load two boats side by side (without having to buy two sets of rollers!) fits on almost any roof rack, and it supports up to half of your boat's weight. The ShowBoat slides out up to 34" over the rear of your vehicle, so you won't have to worry about scraping your boat across your roof. When you're done loading your boat, just slide the ShowBoat back in out of the way and flip the two red safety latches back to lock the ShowBoat in place.Yakima 66" Round Bars are required to complete the ShowBoat. The ShowBoat requires a pair of Yakima round bars for use as the telescoping poles that support the roller. For most vehicles we recommend the Yakima 0410 66" Round bars . The bars are sold separately because the bar length required varies depending on your vehicle.  It mounts to round, square, and most factory installed roof rack crossbars. The ShowBoat is a great accessory for any kayak or canoe rack, and it really lets you save your energy and get your exercise paddling out on the water, instead of weight-training with your boat!

Yakima's BoatLoader and Thule's Outrigger II Kayak and Canoe Load Assists

nbsp;   If you've already got a kayak or canoe rack on your vehicle, but you wish lifting your boat up onto the roof wasn't quite so cumbersome, these load assist options from Yakima and Thule will help you get that boat on the roof without having to trade your existing rack for an expensive roller system. The Thule 847 Outrigger II Kayak / Canoe Rack Loader fits Thule square bar roof racks, and when not in use, the telescoping arm slides back inside the crossbar. Then the integrated load stop flips down and locks the Outrigger in place, so it'll never slide out unexpectedly and hit you in the head. Installing this might take all of three minutes. Pop off the end cap on your roof rack's load bar, slide the Outrigger II into the load bar flat side down, and tighten the retainer bolt with the included allen wrench. If you need to install an Outrigger on both sides of your vehicle, you may have to put one in the front crossbar and one in the rear if you have shorter cro...
