DIY Mod to Hack your Thule Hullavator to Fit the 2019 Hobie Outback Kayak.
This video will show how I modified my Thule Hullavator to fit the 2019 Hobie Outback. When I finish, I rushed to try to load it on my SUV, by myself, and found out some pitfalls to doing this. It's still not super easy, but I think it can be done if you keep in mind certain key factors, like preplacing all straps, position the kayak alongside the hullavator as close to the exact center-of-gravity as possible, before lifting it onto the lower cradle arms. Once perfectly centered, securely strap down the kayak. Preplace the front and rear tie-down straps. Then, in a single balanced smooth motion, press the release handles (you'll have to stoop and reach under), and try to smoothly move the kayak up and onto your car roof. An SUV or truck will be harder due to the hight and the higher weight of the Outback. With 2 people, it's a piece of cake. Very easy. Taking it down is much easier to do solo, since you have gravity helping you. And you mainly only need to keep it balanced and smoothly dropping down slowly alongside the vehicle. Ok, I hope this helps. Please comment with any suggestions on improvements.
