Rebecca & Jake

The KayRak is awesome! We have been looking for something which allows us to bring our dog on our adventures instead of leaving him behind. With the KayRak system, we have found it! Now we can enjoy our outings more knowing he is not alone at home. Jake loves it too!

Mario & big friend

Mario had some unique challenges for his kayaking requirements. Mario's dog will weigh close to 170 lb once fully grown. The solution to kayaking with such a lot of man's best friend was to remove the front seat from a double kayak, and then use a single strap-on outrigger system for stability. looks great Mario, too bad your dog can't paddle!
Mark & friend

It is much easier to paddle
this way rather than having our dog ride in the cockpit! ...I must admit, we drew some attention with this system. People were taking pictures of it & asking questions. We chose to use a harness rather than a life jacket for the dog due to the heat.

I used a "strap-on" style for a three day trip with seven people into Georgian Bay, Ontario. Fantastic stability, on a rented 16 ft with a rudder, a must have to maintain good manoeuvrability. I even stood up in the kayak to take pictures. Had a plastic storage box mounted behind me on the platform, filled ( about 50 lbs.) with "car-camping" stuff (Coleman stove, propane tank, cooking pots, etc.). So you get similar transport to a canoe but still kept the fun of a kayak! And keeping up with the group was no problem, ahead some of the time, so drag was not increased much.

Bart: The outriggers worked flawlessly even in pretty heavy weather. I saw no sign of strain on the system or the deck. Congratulations on your design. It is a work of elegant simplicity and applied ingenuity.
Pauline Halstead

For this paddler, the outriggers have opened up freedom on the water. Despite being fortunate enough not to be confined to a wheelchair, Ted still finds mobility challenging after his serious car accident. This picture says it all! Thanks to the creativity and kindness of Bart, many kayakers like Ted, can experience paddling on rivers and lakes that most of us take for granted.

Martin, Alannah & Reilly

Thanks for the Kayrak. We've had it out a few times now and Reilly is getting the hang of it. People seem to be quite impressed with the system.

Donna & Gerda

Gerda (my yellow Lab) and I have been enjoying our kayRak very much! We just took an overnight trip to Squam Lake in Holderness, NH, and camped on Bowman Island. Gerda is very relaxed on the platform and just loves it.
Thank you for your innovative and practical kayRak. We’re glad we have it and we just love it!
Ian & Skye

It was fun kayaking through the Provincial Park. We had many people, both campers and local cottagers, go out of their way to come and talk to us... As one cottager put it: "I've been here over 20 years and this is the first time I have ever seen a dog riding the back of a kayak."

The outrigger works like a dream, better than I could've imagined. Darcy is very comfortable.

Thanks Glenn

Hi Bart,
yesterday I picked up your parcel from the post office, and installed the outrigger right away on my kayak. It was very easy and took only a few minutes. Then I took the new rig out on the water for a test ride. It was truely impressive how stable the kayak was, while at the same time it didn't feel like there was anything attached to it. I expected it to be a good product, otherwise I wouldn't have ordered it, but this surpassed my expectations.

Thanks from a very happy customer.

Paul & Nox
Thank you for all the pleasures with my new rig. It has given me a second life as a kayakist. As you can see "NOX" also enjoys the ride.
