    Not sure how I missed this post. I saw your defender with the AI on top at the Expo. When I got home I did some online stalking

    I picked up a yellow Adventure Island in June and have been having a ball. There's a few of us around and we catch up every now and again for a bit of a trip and BBQ someplace.

    That Hullivator sure looks the goods. I just use an extension pole out the side of the roofrack and lift one end at a time. I can see that your system would be perfect if you had back problems though.

    Where abouts do you sail it around Sydney?

    Here's a few pics I've taken on recent trips.

    slt,
    Thanks for starting this thread, after I showed it to them, my folks went out and bought two hullivators so they can put the kayaks on their van. They were pretty annoyed after buying kayaks last year and finding it too hard to load them, so they have been kayaking just twice. The hullivators should make loading the kayaks much easier for their aging backs.
    Unfortunately it means I can't borrow the kayaks as often since they'll be used more
    Cheers,
    Mark
