"From the very start, it’s obvious that Celo Racks are designed by a paddler. This rack makes loading and securing boats easy for one person, even on windy days. The padded V-cradles have just the right texture for sliding boats into position, and the lip makes quick work of securing straps. Most important: it effectively distributes the support along the hull of a long boat, and holds it safely and securely. Go ahead and buy that surfski ... and a Celo Rack." Sherra, Peterborough, ON
