Yakima BigStack Rooftop Canoe, Kayak, or Surfboard Rack with Tie Down Review

We got the Bigstack to carry two Perception Swifty Kayaks.We used it to take them on vacation from PA to NC.
While some reviews indicated they did not seem very secure, that was not our experience.Our's were mounted on our Toyota Highlander factory roof rack.The strapping system was designed well and if you follow the directions, they are very secure.While the product states you can carry up to 4 kayaks, it would be tight to do so with our roof rack but possible.It definitely would carry 3 Swifties without a problem.Our kayaks are 9 1/2 feet long.A friend just purchased the same system for their Swifty and a 12ft kayak.They are also pleased with the Bigstack.

We also purchased cockpit covers to help with wind resistance which also allowed for storage in the kayak.

The only drawback is getting the kayaks lifted onto the roof, but that is the case with most any system.

I hope this helps you with your decision!
