Very solid product Jun 15, 2009
By Victor Okunev I use Yakima DryDock Boat Hitch Mount rack to haul huge Current Designs Libra XT double kayak on top of my Toyota 4Runner. I am very pleased with the rack, it keeps the kayak very secure. You don't have to worry about longitudinal kayak wobbling when you drive over the rough terrain or speed bumps! I've noticed some latitudinal movement of the rack, though I have not observed any negative effects of it. As far as I can tell, this is pretty much the only option to haul something long and heavy on top of 4Runner as the roof base for putting a two-crossbar roof rack is very small unless your truck has factory-installed rails. To give you a complete picture of my setup, I also use Yakima BoatLoader accessory on my front roof-mounted crossbar. This allows me to load and unload the heavy beast by myself, which makes my life so much easier. Granted, you can't open the rear cargo door with this rack in the trailer hitch, but I can live with that.

would like to give it 5 stars May 09, 2011
By Gazerdude the description does not say that it is incomplete and that you need to purchase the cross bar separately. In fact, the description says it is ready to go. But when you get it, there is no cross bar and the picture on the box does not have the cross bar. would have been nice to know at time of purchase. Other than that, it works as advertised.

yakima drydock canoe hitch carrier Dec 12, 2011
By binns789 I purchased this item in early spring and am overall pleased. When you have the straps connected it is relatively secure. The only thing frustrating about the product is it does not come with the top bar... I purchased it at a local truck store for roughly $50-$75.. There is a little sway forward and backward when I am loading or removing my canoe.
