Why this product

Why the Thule DockGlide?

The felt-lined cradles on the DockGlide let you slide a kayak into position without lifting it fully overhead โ€” a partial load assist that works well for solo paddlers with lighter boats. 75 lb capacity, 6.8 lbs on the rack, clean saddle design. Single kayak only and no SUP support, so this is purpose-built for kayak owners who want easier loading without the Hullavator price.
