The Swagman CONTOUR is a simple and effective way to transport a kayak on the roof of your vehicle. It makes loading and unloading your craft a piece of cake. The rack’s high density foam padding protects the hull from being scratched. The tie down straps along with the bow and stern ropes keep the kayak securely in place when on the road. The universal mounting system fits most types of cross bars. The CONTOUR has a weight limit of 100lbs.
