DESC: The Hullavator by Thule is the next generation of roof racks! Equipped with gas assisted shocks that do all the work, while you lower down the rack from the top of your car to the side of the automobile. Load your boat, strap it in, then push the rack back up to the top to secure the rack and boat for travel. Wow! is the reaction from most people that have used this or seen the Hullavator. It reduces lift height required to load and unload your boat by 40".And if your concern is it seems like it may just be too much or too big for your car, it isn't. You can mount side by side with other accessories - the Hullavator only needs 25" of load bar space for mounting. The Hullavator comes ready to go with its lift system, padded support, mounting hardware and all the straps necessary to secure your boat.
