Yakima Hully Rollers Boat Mount

Mounted them on my pier to help loading the kayaks, already used them on the car without a problem. Need to order another set for the other side of the pier.

I kinda laughed at the thought of these when I first saw them, but after I watched my girl try to put her boat on top of her dad’s Tahoe I understand their use. These things are great to help with ancient monster boats which seem to way more than solid lead, and they totally help the more petite bodies out there to throw their boats up on huge cars with ease. They’re also super stable when you tie your boat down. A great idea built super functional.

My wife can load and unload her 16-ft kayak all by herself, and they really hold the boat securely once mounted. These mounts are solidly built and easy to use.

We use these at the back with saddles in front for our sea kayaks. While they work well when loading, they do not secure the kayak as well as the saddles underway--especially in the wind. We make trips from Wisconsin to South Dakota and other western states and the wind is usually strong. In addition, they don't "mold" to the hull shape as well, and have caused a permanent indentation in the bottom of my wife's kayak. We're going to saddles front and rear. For shorter trips or where wind is not a problem these rollers are great.

Thank goodness for these little devices! Now my husband doesn't have to help me position my boat on pads or rails on my car - I can roll the boat up there all by myself! Awesome!

I recently purchased a set of the Hulley Rollers for my kayak - a Wilderness Systems Pungo 140. I must say the rollers make loading and unloading much faster and enjoyable than the old way using the foam blocks. The yak is always centered on the bars. Cuts down the loading time to approx. 10 minutes from start to finish! The only downside is that the whole roller assembly tends to roll on the Yakima mounting bar regardless of how tight you torque the wing nuts down. I remedied the situation by wrapping the bar with black duct tape then placing the roller assembly over the tape. This gives the roller assembly something to "bite" into. No more moving around on the bar! Awesome product. Also great service - had the rollers w/in a couple of days from when the order was placed w/o any special shipping instructions. This is my second time ordering from BackcountryStore.com - I'll definitely be ordering again.

My wife and I both have kayaks and use the rollers on the back and saddles on the front bars. Loading and unloading is the advantage, but the rollers can put a dent in your kayak if you leave it tied down on the rack too long. Rollers are NOT the thing to use on long trips in my opinion.

This product makes loading and unloading a kayak by yourself very easy. I have two sets on my 4Runner with Landsharks on the front. Get the boat on the rollers and just roll it up on the roof. Works great, everytime. I'm never going back to saddles. I find you have to lube the roller bushings regularly with silicone based lube for best performance.

The greatest product on the market. Makes loading and unloading a 61lb kayak a breeze, even for this 67 year young kayaker. Absolutely love it.
Bravo Yakima!
