Yakima BowDown Boat Rack description The Yakima BowDown Boat Rack securely holds your whitewater or sea kayak for a trip to the put-in, and then it folds down to increase aerodynamics when you're not shuttling a boat. It sure will be nice to pull into your garage without worrying about snapping off your boat rack. The BowDown Boat Rack's steel-core frame provides plenty of strength and durability while the HullGuard EVA padding keeps your boat from getting wrecked. Yakima added a pair of heavy duty straps with padded buckles. This rack even has an integrated bottle opener for celebrations at the takeout. |
Works perfectly on 2001 Nissan Xterra
gmilton288555: 
I bought 2 sets for my 2001 Xterra, and they fit perfectly on the factory crossbars right out of the box. No need to purchase longer bolts. The included bolts are just long enough, and I had to squeeze the brackets together to get the bolts started, but then it's not a problem. When folded, I can still enter my 7' garage door with plenty of clearance. With the built-in ramps, I can easily load my 12' Old Town Dirigo by myself, and the racks position two kayaks perfectly and hold them securely. The included straps are very good, too. The entire system seems to be very rugged and a lot of attention obviously went into the details of the design. My only complaint, though minor, is that the racks whistle a little bit driving down the highway while folded and empty. Overall, this is a great product!
