| - | So after all the dialog last week, I decided to buy the Universal Lockrack from REI. ...mostly I wanted to see it but wanted to be able to return it. So, after 2 hours for this mechanical engineer to figure out how to put it on the car (really not that complicated, but just that many pieces) I found that the arm is 3" away from the Epic V-10L surfski! It would be 1" away from the phat V-9! Lockrack's Surfski version would still be an inch away from the V-10L. Also its only adjustable in 1" increments. i.e. It only works for one boat and has to be re-adjusted to fit another one. Plus they don't have a phone number. They don't answer email. Neat idea, but the execution is one of the worst I've seen. picture is attached. | + | So after all the dialog last week, I decided to buy the Universal Lockrack from REI. …mostly I wanted to see it but wanted to be able to return it.
