Loading your kayak shouldn't be a workout before you even hit the water. The Thule Hullavator Pro revolutionizes the process with its innovative kayak lift assist system. This premium Thule kayak carrier features gas-assist struts that reduce the kayak's weight by up to 40 lbs (18 kg), allowing for easy waist-level loading and unloading by a single person. Double-extending arms lower the kayak up to 3 feet (1 meter), making it the ideal kayak assist loader for taller vehicles like SUVs or for anyone seeking an effortless loading experience. Built with corrosion-resistant materials, it offers maximum protection with 8 padded touchpoints, ensuring your kayak arrives safely.

Q: Are traditional tools required to install this?
A: No! Any tools required for installing this rack product come included in the box!
Q: How does the 'kayak lift assist' feature work on the Thule Hullavator Pro?
A: The Hullavator Pro uses gas-assist struts that handle up to 40 lbs (18 kg) of your kayak's weight. This makes lifting the kayak onto the roof significantly easier, as you only manage a fraction of the total weight. You load and strap the kayak at waist level, then effortlessly lift it into the transport position.
Q: Can I use the Thule Hullavator by myself?
A: Yes! The lift assist system is designed specifically to enable a one person kayak loader experience. It dramatically reduces the effort needed to get your kayak onto your vehicle's roof rack.
Q: What types of kayaks and roof racks is the Thule Hullavator Pro compatible with?
A: This Thule kayak attachment fits kayaks up to 36 inches wide and 75 lbs. It's compatible with most Thule roof rack systems, including SquareBar (with adapter), ProBar, WingBar Evo, and round bars, but not recommended for Thule WingBar Edge. Ensure your crossbars have a 4-8 inch overhang past the mounting feet.
Q: How does this Thule kayak holder protect my boat during transport?
A: The Hullavator Pro provides excellent protection with 8 padded touchpoints supporting the hull. It also includes Thule QuickDraw bow and stern tie-downs and center straps with car-protective buckle bumpers to securely hold your kayak without damaging it or your vehicle.
Q: Is the installation difficult for this kayak rack lift assist system?
A: While assembly is required, many users find the installation straightforward following the instructions. The main consideration is ensuring your vehicle's crossbars are compatible and have the necessary overhang (4-8 inches past the feet) for proper operation and vehicle clearance.
Q: Do I need bow and stern tie-downs?
A: Absolutely. It's the law for a reason, it's the only safe way to carry your boats. Many of our canoe and kayak racks come with tie downs, if not you can buy them separately.
