“Malone Vertical Carrier - I was confused”

“First, I thought it was a stacker that would allow 2 kayaks to be attached. Then, I saw it was not metal and the weight limit was 70#. My mistake. Second, the bolts were definitely not long enough for an oval roof mount (HONDA CRV), but the manufacturer offers a kit for $5 with longer bolts. The bolts required a wrench to tighten, and I prefer to have a nice finger tightening grip already present (for ease of throwing it on). Hard to describe, but other manufacturers have finger tightening bolts that do not require tools. I have to load up 3 kayaks readily (each weekend) and need ease of use, plus a stacker type of system which Malone makes, but I'd rather not deal with because of the wrench/bolt set up and the need to buy a kit or longer bolts at the hardware store. Please, this was just a mis-fit for me! You might find the price inviting and not have the oval factory mount roof rack. And if you don't have to mount it to the rack much, the bolt/wrench set up would be fine.”
