ORS Racks Direct announces the all-new 2008 Yakima , Yakima BigStackShowBoat boat lift-assist, Mako Aero Saddles and BowDown kayak racks now available for immediate shipment.
Montpelier, VT (PRWEB) March 17, 2008 -- ORS Racks Direct, a leading provider of truck and car rack systems for commercial and recreational applications, announced today the arrival and availability for immediate shipment of all 2008 Yakima Racks kayak rack models.
The Yakima BowDown kayak rack ( image viewable at http://www.orsracksdirect.com/yakima-bowdown-kayak-rack-8004042.html ) improves on j-cradle kayak design for 2008 with fold-down cradle capability when not in use, a feature bringing significant advances as it eliminates overhead clearance issues often found with j-cradle style kayak racks.
The Yakima Mako Aero Saddles ( image viewable at http://www.orsracksdirect.com/yakima-mako-aero-kayak-rack-8004044.html ) are now packaged with universal factory rack adapters included, eliminating the need to use the additional Yakima Universal Mighty Mounts adapters necessary with the regular Yakima Mako saddles version.
The Yakima ShowBoat canoe and kayak lift-assist ( image viewable at http://www.orsracksdirect.com/yakima-showboat-roof-rack-rollers-8004040.html ) is a major new innovation in canoe and kayak lift assistance systems. Compatible with any roof rack crossbars including factory racks and after-market car rack systems, The Yakima ShoWBoat lift-assist works in combination with any canoe carrier set-up or kayak carrier set-up. Utilizing an easy three step process, the Yakima ShowBoat includes a roller that telescopes out to extend out beyond the rear of the vehicle, allowing the user to then place the canoe or kayak onto the roller and then slide the boat into position onto whatever canoe or kayak carriers are used in combination with the Yakima Show Boat. Simply retract the roller back into its storage position during transport.
The Yakima BigStack ( image viewable at http://www.orsracksdirect.com/yakima-bigstack-kayak-rack-8004041.html ) improves on kayak stacker design (the style of kayak carrier that hauls up to 4 kayaks on their sides) by allowing the Yakima Big Stack upright posts to fold down when not in use, eliminating overhead clearance issues.
