The Four Unit Yard Rack - Designed to support Four of your Paddle Sports Units in your Yard
This is the original paddle sport rack I designed and had diagonally upward support arms, however, the new four unit design has the capability of supporting four canoes, kayaks or paddle boards!! Or a mixture of whatever units you have at your cottage.
It is made from Eastern White cedar which is an excellent wood for external use and has anti-rotting and anti-insect/termite properties. Ground support blocks are attached to the horizontal bottom supports to keep them out of the moisture in the ground. also extending the longevity of the rack.
The support arms are 72 inches apart on center and rack is approximately 48 inches high. It is constructed using Mortise and Tenons joints which are glued/screwed to provide the strength to support your canoes, kayaks and/or paddleboards. Each arm has been planed so that a 3/8" thick strip of HDPE (aka hockey board) can optionally be attached to prevent any scratches to you paddle sports equipment or the wood support arms.
The support rack can optionally be finished with a marine spar urethane which provides excellent weather protection and allows for the beauty of the cedar to be seen and offers a long lasting beautiful finish.
We also provide anchor supports on each arm as an option, which allows you to secure your paddle sports units to the support rack.
Finally, we can provide ground tie downs for your paddle sport rack. A support rack fully loaded with canoes/kayaks/paddle boards can in effect become a sail in areas exposed to wind. Therefore it is advised that the paddle sport rack be anchored to the ground.
The price quoted is for a support rack with no options. It does not include any staining / urethaning, unit tie down anchors, ground tie down anchors, or the HDPE hockey board on the support arms.
