The way to tell is by looking at the foam block between your legs. If it has a hard plastic piece where your drink holder goes, then you have a 2006 or newer. If you dont have a drink holder then it is probably 2005 or older.

Sorry :-(

Your boat will not work with the Lock and Roll System.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Maybe

Due to the wide variety of kayaks on the market, many sea kayaks will work and some wont. Factors include...

Cockpit legnth: The Lock and Roll works with cockpits from 18 to 41 inches

Bulkhead: You must have at least 6" behind the back of your cockpit rim. (stern side) Many boats have a wall there.

DID YOU KNOW... On a hot summer day, if you left your sea kayak on sawhorses, you may return to find both ends bowed down. This is due to the low quality of materials used from many manufacturers. The only guaranteed way to haul a sea kayak is using J racks.

Boaterlock.com assumes no responsibility for damage done to boat as a result of using this product.

Bow and stern lines are recomended for all sea kayaks.
