The Thule 897XT Hullavator Kayak Rack received the Silver Industrial Design Excellence Award (IDEA), one of the most prestigious, global awards for innovation in product design. The 897XT Thule Hullavator replaces the previous Hullavator with new enhancements and now offers greater kayak size capacity and protection with a more robust latching mechanism.
The Hullavator kayak rack system is a lift-assist system that brings the load platform down to your level and enables anyone to load and unload any type of kayak without assistance from anyone else. For many solo and tandem kayak paddlers one of the biggest challenges they face isn't on the water, but the loading of their boat on their vehicle's car roof rack. The 897XT Thule Hullavater kayak rack lift system functions without any contact to the vehicle and dramatically reduces traditional loading height by more than 3 feet, simultaneously reducing the power needed to load a kayak to the vehicle's roof rack by 50%!
The Thule Hullavator can mount side by side on all of Thule Racks load bars (including square, elliptical Rapid Aero & Xsporter truck racks) or Yakima Racks round cross bars with other gear carriers at the same time, as the lift system only requires approximately 25 inches of load bar space for mounting. Everything is included for a complete kayak rack system with lift system, padded support, mounting hardware, boat straps, and ratcheting bow/stern tie downs all included. Attaches to all of Thule Racks load bars (including square, elliptical Rapid Aero & Xsporter truck rack) and Yakima Racks round bars. Please note that the Thule 897XT Hullavator is not compatible with factory roof racks.- Works with all types of kayaks including touring, sit-on-top, tandem, whitewater, sea and recreational kayaks.
- The Thule 897XT Hullavator kayak carrier reduces lift height required to load and unload a kayak by three feet!
Reduces effort required to lift kayak with gas assist shocks that help raise boat onto the vehicle roof rack. - No need to reach top of vehicle to secure boat to carrier – kayak strapping is easily done with carrier in down position.
- Thule Hullavater offers superior boat protection with integrated padded support.
- Mount side by side with other accessories as the lift system only requires approximately 25 inches of load bar space for mounting.
- Everything is included for a complete kayak carrier system with lift system, padded support, mounting hardware, boat straps, and ratcheting bow/stern tie downs all included.
- Attaches to all of Thule Racks load bars (including square, elliptical Rapid Aero & Xsporter) and Yakima Racks round bars. The Thule 897XT Hullavator is not compatible with factory roof racks.
