What Steve thinks......
The Thule 874 is the 'classic' kayak carrier that has helped kayakers safely move their watercraft around for years. It has stood the test of time but it is now a bit of an old design and a poor relation to the newer Thule K-guard. However, if you are Thule fan it does offer an entry level unit for fewer dollars than the K-Guard.
I would recommend buying an extra set of basic tie down straps for securing the ends of your kayak to your vehicle towing points. It is disappointing that these are not included in the kit as the instructions tell to use them.
