The premium Yakima BigStack kayak rack (8004041) now offers simple push lever technology to fold the BigStack upright posts down flat forward or backward when not in use. Instantly solves any overhead clearance issues, improves aerodynamics and best of all relieves you from looking like you have a pair of 1970's era car phone antennas mounted to your roof rack! The included universal mounts allow the Yakima Big Stack kayak carrier to fasten directly to virtually all factory rack cross bars as well as any aftermarket roof rack bars including Yakima bars, any Thule roof rack bars and Inno Racks crossbars. The Yakima BigStack can also lock to roof rack using a 2-pack of Yakima Locks (sold separately; see accessory add-ons below).
The Yakima 04041 BigStack kayak rack features a very narrow profile and takes up the least amount of rooftop space and can accommodate several kayaks stacked on their sides (boats can be stacked on either side or both sides of BigStack uprights). The kayak stacker post is padded for total boat and vehicle protection. AnchorHead tie-down feature makes this the easist kayak stacking carrier to strap down boats to. Includes front and rear folding Yakima BigStack posts, all universal mounting hardware, 2 heavy-duty straps with padded buckles and a pair of Yakima Bow/Stern ratcheting tie-down straps for securing kayak front and rear during travel (for each additional kayak we recommend adding another pair of Yakima Bow/Stern tie-down straps, see accessory add-ons below).
- Designed to carry multiple kayaks stacked on their sides. Very narrow profile and takes up the least amount of rooftop space. Allows you the option of carrying many kayaks or the combination of carrying kayaks alongside other gear carriers at the same time.
- Engineered with simple push lever on each Yakima Big Stack upright post so they can fold down flat forward or backward when not in use. Instantly solves any overhead clearance issues and improves aerodynamics.
- The included universal mounts allow the Yakima 04041 BigStack kayak carrier to fasten directly to any aftermarket base rack bars including Yakima Racks, Inno Racks & Thule Racks crossbars. Mounts directly to virtually all factory roof rack crossbars too!
- Will lock to roof rack using a 2-pack of Yakima Locks (not included; see accessory add-ons below).
- Easily transfers from one automobile to another if necessary.
- New SteelCore construction utilizes a steel substrate encased in durable Yakima Hullguard foam padding for unrivalled strength and pampering characteristics.
- For complete boat protection, we recommend using this kayak rack in combination with Yakima bar pads (not included; see accessory add-ons below).
- Ideal for many styles of kayaks including river, whitewater and recreational kayaks.
- Includes front and rear folding Yakima BigStack upright posts as well as all mounting hardware, 2 heavy-duty straps with padded buckles and a pair of Yakima Bow/Stern ratcheting tie-down straps for securing kayak front and rear during travel (for each additional kayak we recommend adding another pair of Yakima Bow/Stern tie-down straps).
- We highly recommend the Inno Racks INA451 Cradle Set (not included; see accessory add-ons below) for easy loading of kayaks onto kayak stacker style kayak racks. The Inno INA451 prevents each kayak from sliding down and holds it upright & in place when loading.
- Easy to follow Yakima 4041 Big Stack instructions included.
