Hello kayakers, I am Fran El Mejor and today I share a very easy way to load the GALAXY KAYAK SUPERNOVA or any kayak that is somewhat heavy, when you do it alone. Well, you will have to get a piece of foam mat “but chubby”, I use 3 cm thick and I got it in NAUTICA RAMIREZ ESTEPONA (Distributor of GALAXY KAYAK), and now only 4 steps to follow:

 

Once we have it, we will measure and trim the shape of some ears that will be tucked under the car roofs.

Now we will put our SUPERNOVA in parallel next to the car and in order not to damage the helm it will be that part that we will raise little by little until we make sure that it is supported in the middle of the 2 boats and on the foam.

Next, we will go to the bow and from there we will push it by sliding it on the foam while we put in place our GALAXY SUPERNOVA.

We remove the foam, tie our kayak well and enjoy life! Keep in mind that to download it we will do the same, but vice versa.

This is one way of doing it. Our partners also teach us other ways to climb the kayak on the roof of the car. Here you can see some videos:

I hope it is helpful, friends, see you next time!
