I wanted to let you know the rack is working out for my 85# kayak. I\u2019m thinking the strap must have been twisted when the link broke. The rack looks and works great on the dock. I plan on getting another for my wife for Christmas. \u00a0Thanks for all your help in handling our issues. It\u2019s nice to see someone taking pride in their work. You were great.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n 7\/23\/2017<\/span> – Carol, MI – Clamp On Kayak Dock Rack 7\/19\/2017<\/span> \u2013 Barbara, MN \u2013 Clamp On Waterside Kayak Dock Rack 7\/5\/2017<\/span> \u2013 Scott, Mass. \u2013 Dockside Bolt On Kayak Dock Hoist 6\/4\/201<\/span> \u2013 Johnathan, MN \u2013 Dockside Clamp On Kayak Dock Rack 4\/27\/2017<\/span> \u2013 Michele, MN \u2013 Waterside Clamp On Dock Storage Lift 11\/16\/2016<\/span> – Sandie, Indiana – Waterside Bolt On Kayak Dock Storage Rack As I have mentioned, I am on a fairly steep hill and have a high seawall.

Waterside\/ Clamp On Mount Kayak Lift and Dock Storage Rack<\/strong>\nI purchased your DockSider Racks in July 2016.\nI really appreciate the design and function of the Docksider racks. \u00a0 I think they are wonderful, Great planning and engineering went into solving the problem of storing kayaks so that they are out of the way and don't accumulate water and are easy to retrieve and put in the water as well as easy to put back on the racks.\n\n<\/a>3\/28\/2019 Another Installation by BullDog Marine<\/strong><\/span>, \nGreensboro Georgia.\n\n\n\n\n<\/pre>\n

<\/a>8\/22\/2018\u00a0 Nancy, NJ<\/span><\/strong> - Stainless Steel Dockside Storage Rack\n<\/strong>I purchased this dock side kayak rack in stainless steel because my kayaks are too heavy for me to carry up and down from my back yard.\u00a0 Just had my floating dock installed and this works perfect for fitting into a smaller space and also saving me dock space, it helps me easily put my kayak in the water for when I'm ready.\u00a0 No more excuses as to why I'm not using my kayaks as much as I have wanted to this past summer.\u00a0 It has made it so much easier that I am purchasing a second stainless steel rack for my spouse's kayak also.\u00a0 I love that the stainless steel option is available for me as I live on the saltwater and another material wouldn't hold up to the element.\u00a0 Would definitely recommend to anyone thinking of a launch system for their kayak.<\/span><\/pre>\n
<\/a>7\/8\/2018\u00a0 Tom, MN<\/span><\/strong> - Waterside Kayak Lift and Dock Storage Rack<\/strong>\nThis is great!\u00a0 My mom loves it! She is 75 and can operate it - No Problem!\nA Great product!\n\n\n<\/span><\/span><\/pre>\n
6\/1\/2018<\/span> - Maria, Mi - Waterside Paddleboard Dock Rack\n<\/strong>I purchased two of your kayak lifts last year and love them! They are so easy to use and keep my kayaks safe and accessible.\n\n4\/18\/2018<\/span> - Russ, CA \u2013 Kip, CA - Waterside Paddleboard Dock Rack\n<\/strong>It looks fantastic, and \u201cI LOVE IT\u201d. All the boaters that drive by comment, and I say \"Dockcraft.com\".\n\n3\/30\/2018<\/span> - Russ, CA \u2013 Bolt On Dockside Kayak \/ SUP Dock Lift\n<\/strong>I am an older guy and have a bit of a tricky low back and this product is just so easy on the body! Absolutely love it and it truly is as easy as you show in your video. Great job!!<\/pre>\n
<\/strong>It appears as though you are certainly filling a need that there are few, if any, solutions for. I love the design of the racks and the efficient way to keep the kayaks when not in use.<\/p>\n
<\/strong>I received my order and it works very well. Especially like how easy it is to raise the kayak out of the water.<\/p>\n
<\/strong>I installed these units and all went well and the kids put the kayaks in with ease this week end.<\/p>\n
<\/strong>My wife loves how they store out of the way while still allowing very easy access to the water. I would recommend your product in a heartbeat.<\/p>\n
<\/strong>It works very well. It has turned out to be pretty slick..<\/p>\n
<\/strong>Just a note to say again thank you for your help in my getting the kayak racks for my Hobie Sport and Hobie Outback. How lucky I was also to have Marty 17 miles away. What are the chances?! He was so helpful with the set up and so efficient yet never seemed in a hurry. The whole experience has been great.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe love DockCraft\u2019s unique Kayak Storage Rack” which makes it so easy to lower, raise and store our 2 Perception Pescador 10.0 kayaks on our pier\/dock. During installation I received great customer support from Ed when I needed to make a small modification to one of the racks. Thank you for your outstanding product and service!\u201d Lake Hamilton, IN<\/p>\n
<\/span><\/strong>I am a Dock Craft Industries Junky!!!! Can’t wait to get my next Docksider Kayak\/Paddle Board rack on my dock!!!! So easy to kayak with no lifting!!! Kayaking is a breeze now! LOVE IT!!!!
<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n
<\/span><\/strong>Hi!! Just got kayak lift installed!! Love it!! I had my Tommy dock installers install it as they were in the water anyhow. A new dealer, Owen Jones,\u00a0just bought Tommy Dock brand in Wisconsin. Just thought I’d pass along name as the installers were so impressed with your lift!!\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Thank you!
<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n
<\/strong>“My wife, Bette, really loves it, \u00a0She no longer has to haul it up onto the dock and then flip it over.\u00a0 Previously, when on the dock, she had to turn it over and slide it into the water scraping the bottom of her kayak.\u00a0 She was also very surprised at the ease of pulling her kayak into the storage position.”<\/p>\n
<\/span><\/strong>\u201cThe Docksider kayak lifts we purchased from you have made kayaking so much easier and fun.\u00a0\u00a0 The Docksider lifts have greatly simplified the process of storing our heavier Hobiecat Kayaks when not in use and also getting them back into the water safely and with ease.\u00a0 We love them.\u00a0 Thanks!\u201d
<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n
<\/strong>“Great American Product” – a great way to store our kayak!<\/p>\n
<\/strong>\u201cBravo on the lift design! I am very impressed. So much that I would like to purchase another one. I work in the tool and die business designing and fabricating automotive checking fixtures that check production car parts for tolerance variation and quality. I usually try to come up with my own designs but I have to admit you have a winner!\u201d<\/p>\n
<\/strong>I received the kayak rack and installed it thus morning.\u00a0 I have to say I’m impressed, it works just like the video showed.<\/p>\n
<\/strong>We bought one of your Docksider racks a couple years ago…. Our dock is a truss-style Floe dock, our kayaks are Old Town. \u00a0I love how your rack works!\u00a0 Looking forward to my second one!<\/p>\n
<\/strong>I installed the waterside Docksider this morning.\u00a0 \u00a0The product is even better than I imagined it could be.\u00a0\u00a0 Install was straight forward. Load\u00a0 and unload of my kayak was effortless. Here are some pictures for you.
<\/strong><\/p>\n
<\/strong>The unit works Great – Thanks for a Great Product!
5\/8\/2014<\/span> – Jim, Missouri – Dockside Bolt On Kayak Rack used for SUP
<\/strong>Installing the Docksiders went well and here are some pictures of the installation with our paddleboards “at home”!\u00a0 Thanks!
<\/strong><\/p>\n
<\/strong>Actually installed the day after it came. Easy and works as advertised! Thanks.<\/p>\n
<\/strong>Fixed!\u00a0 All I did was adjust the straps to the kayak after it\u00a0was in\u00a0the proper
position as you suggested.\u00a0 Seems to work just fine now, and my wife has
already tested it.\u00a0 She is elated.\u00a0 Thanks for everything.
It’s good to see a business that stands behind their product and provides excellent customer support. I think you’ve gone echelons above any business I’ve ever purchased from. \u00a0Almost wish that I could do it again!<\/p>\n
<\/strong>The dock rack arrived last\u00a0Friday as promised in perfect condition.
My husband put the rack up this afternoon and it works just as I’d hoped it
would!\u00a0 It was very easy to install and I look forward to\u00a0using my
kayak without having to lift\u00a0and carry it.<\/p>\n
<\/strong>Here are the photos I promised of the units installed.\u00a0 They work great and we use them all the time.\u00a0 I am using them with the \u201cLiquid Logics\u201d Versaboards.\u00a0 Thanks for all your help.\u00a0 Please feel free to use these photos on your website or in any advertising.<\/p>\n
<\/strong>We installed the Docksider today and it works great.\u00a0Thank you.<\/p>\n
<\/strong>Ed, We received the rack on Friday as scheduled. \u00a0We installed it today! \u00a0It is very handy and easy for lifting the kayak out of the water.<\/p>\n
<\/strong>Great rack for our kayaks \u2013 Thank you.<\/p>\n
<\/span><\/strong>Ed,\u00a0 Just a quick note to tell you that the kayak holders are awesome. \u00a0\u00a0I can’t believe how easy they are to use! \u00a0Just what they promised and just what I wanted!<\/p>\n
<\/strong>So easy a cave man could have done it. \u00a0\u00a0Took me about 10 minutes total.<\/p>\n
<\/strong>We love the lifts. I purchased your lifts as my wife, being petite, routinely was having trouble lifting her Hobie Sport out the water and on to the prior rack due to the weight of the kayak.\u00a0 When lake levels dropped the reach was too much to handle.\u00a0 Your rack, dock mounted, works perfectly by both reducing the vertical lifting weight and allowing for modest adjustment to compensate for varying lake levels during the season.\u00a0I found your design to be not only elegant but pretty simple (both in use & installation).\u00a0 I decided to try your approach before designing something and I am glad I did.\u00a0 Good job & you have a pair of happy customers!<\/p>\n
<\/strong>Hi Ed:\u00a0 We finally set up the kayak racks (3). It took all of about 5 minutes to get them set up and we are VERY pleased!! They are sooooo slick!! Easy to install, easy to use. Thanks a million!!<\/p>\n
<\/strong>Hi Ed, just wanted to let you know, we are so happy with the rack we bought last year that we just ordered another one today.<\/p>\n
