Yakima DeckHand Boat Rack for Vehicles

The DeckHand's felt-padded saddles, which conform to your kayak's hull for a super-secure, full-contact carry that's easy on your boat, offer an impressively simple and easy-to-load solution. Sold in pairs, it partners beautifully with the new HandRoll rollers or another pair of saddles for a custom set-up. Tool-free installation makes it a breeze to attach, and the SKS Lock Core capability allows you to lock your boat to your roof rack for added security. The universal mount fits just about any roof rack, with a weight of 3.50 lbs and dimensions of L 7.50 in x W 8.00 in x H 9.00 in.

The kit includes 1 set of mounts (2 are needed to carry gear), and to complete the set, you can pair it with HandRoll or an additional DeckHand (sold separately). The universal mounting hardware fits most roof racks (round, square, and factory bars), with a minimum crossbar spread of 24". The necessary hardware and straps (Heavy-Duty Straps and Bow/Stern Tie-Downs) are included to secure your gear.

The soft felt padding makes it easy to load and unload your boats, as well as protect them from scratches and dings. The oversized cradle conforms to a variety of hull shapes, providing padded protection. The tool-free installation is quick and easy, and the DeckHand is compatible with SKS (Same Key System) Lock Cores (sold separately). To ensure compatibility, refer to the Yakima Fit My Car Tool.
