Simple kayak stacker for vertical multi-boat transport
Last reviewed: April 2026
At a glance
Why this product
Rhino-Rack's stacker carries up to 3 kayaks vertically at 5 lbs — lighter than the Thule Stacker and the Yakima BigStack. No padding included, so budget for foam blocks. If you paddle with a group and want the lightest possible multi-boat solution, this is worth a look. Single or dual-kayak paddlers should consider a J-cradle or saddle instead.
