  • pricey but great quality with some recent changes in design
I purchased my first set of Yakima gunwale brackets and straps in 2013. (The description of the product says that it's a "rooftop canoe rack," but it's a set of gunwale brackets and straps for use with a rooftop canoe rack.) I was always impressed with the product's design and the ability to strongly and easily (no knot tying needed) attach my canoe to the cross rails on the car top carrier and to the front and rear of my vehicle. Over the last 10 years, I used this product to successfully transport my canoe for thousands of miles, sometimes in very windy conditions, and never had a problem. Due to a change in vehicles (and roof racks), I purchased the newer version of this product in 2023, and there are some design changes. The design of gunwale brackets appears to have changed for the better: they will fit just about any roof rack crossbar that exists and can be tightened-down more securely than the old brackets. The design of the strap that loops over the bow and stern carrier handles of the canoe for the bow and stern straps, however, changed from having a cam-type system (still used for the crossbar straps) to a simple plastic buckle. I have a little less faith in the plastic buckle than I did in the older cam-type system. My hope is that the design change was made for some reason other than saving money for Yakima and that the plastic buckle will not fail during transport of my canoe. ... show more

  • Is as advertised
Does the job, pads could be a little bigger. Plenty of straps to hold down my canoe. I use the guide lines by putting a 1 inch dowel thru the ends and placing in behind the rear latch and a short dowel under the hood. It works better than buying the other accessories. Plastic nylon construction so we will see how long it last. I wish there were locks on them as too easy to steal. ... show more

  • Solidly secured
There's no lateral movement because of the posts and no vertical movement because of the straps. I don't even use bow and stern straps because I have good length roof racks. Highway speeds, no movement at all. Easy to attach. I'll canoe more Now that it's so easy to load it up and it's more secure than the ropes I had been using. ... show more

  • Secured a 80lb canoe over a 600 mile round trip in winds and storms
This system when used correctly is incredibly stable and fairly easy to install. It kept my heavy canoe centered and secure on my forester for a long trip and I was impressed how well it did even in high winds, stop and go traffic and sudden stops, and in the rain. This system is wonderful, if you want to add a slight amount of security to it you can always close the straps (that go over the top) inside your side door which will help prevent someone from loosening the top straps and removing your canoe. On a side note, I was able to use this with the swingdaddy by Yakima too (bike carrier) and it worked really well. I've been happy with all my Yakima products and regularly recommend them. ... show more

  • Super Sturdy
My canoe used to shift all over the place using foam rail blocks no matter how tight I had the straps, front and rear too. It was scary. Couldn't go faster than 55 mph without it flopping side to side. Now with the Yakima Keelover the canoe is rock steady. It doesn't shift a bit even at 70 mph with a 16'6" canoe and narrowly spaced factory cross bars on a compact SUV. Attaching and removing the 4 load stops is very quick. Probably under 2 minutes. Easy to adjust the spacing to clamp the gunwales tight. These are great. Highly recommended. ... show more

  • Perfect for Swift boat transport
Second set to transport a pair of Swift boats on truck or trailer. Only canoe/kayak brackets with uprights low enough to not interfere with hull. Just wish they were a little cheaper, but cest' la vie. Cannot be locked.

  • nice。
The quality is very good. It's not expensive. I need to move the 100-pound Canoe toward it. It's a little difficult.

  • Solid and Secure
The canoe sits securely the entire ride. This is a simple but very effective design.
