The space-saving design of the S512 Folding J Style Kayak Carrier enables you to mount your kayak or canoe on its side, freeing up space on your roof racks to potentially accommodate a second watercraft, depending on the length of your crossbars.

The carrier also features convenient built-in paddle holders with rubber straps on the backside, as well as bow and stern straps for added security.

Crafted with durability in mind, the Rhino-Rack Kayak Carrier is made from high-quality, power-coated steel, ensuring maximum strength, rust resistance, and a long lifespan. This Australian-designed and engineered product is built to withstand the rigors of outdoor adventure.

The versatility of the S512 Folding J Style Kayak Carrier extends beyond just kayaks and canoes. It can also accommodate a variety of other watercraft, including stand-up paddle boards (SUPs) and some canoes, with a weight capacity of up to 132 pounds (60 kg).

For those who need to transport even more gear, the S512 Folding J Style Kayak Carrier can be paired with the optional S512X Arm Extension, allowing you to carry two kayaks side by side. Depending on your crossbars, you can even use two S512 carriers and two S512X extensions to transport up to four watercraft simultaneously, making it one of the most versatile kayak carriers on the market.

When not in use, the carrier's folding design allows it to be stored compactly, improving aerodynamics and reducing fuel consumption and noise while driving. This space-saving feature also enables you to mount additional accessories, such as a luggage carrier, to transport extra gear.
