Why this product

Why the Thule Hull-a-Port Aero?

Thule took the J-cradle concept and gave it an aerodynamic profile. Folds down sleek when empty, carries one kayak up to 75 lbs when loaded. Aluminum construction keeps it at 15.2 lbs. The trade-off versus the XTR: you get a cleaner look and less wind noise, but only single-boat capacity.
