We also provide foam blocks and straps for cartopping as necessary and will be happy to help you find the easiest and safest way to transport your rental equipment.

The "Rule of Thumb" for transporting canoes and kayaks.
No rack at all - One canoe or kayak is easy to load with foam blocks and straps.
If you have a good factory rack with crossbars -1-2 kayaks are OK, only one canoe.
Thule or Yakima rack with the proper accessories 1-4 kayaks, but usually still only one canoe.

Don't have a vehicle capable of carrying a kayak or two? We can deliver and pick your rental kayaks to/from the City of Beacon Public Launch on the Hudson River. The fee for this service is an additional $10.00 per kayak. Please note: This service is not available every day. Please call ahead to reserve your kayaks, especially if you require delivery and pick up at the Beacon Waterfront.

Note: For your safety, we strongly recommend that before you rent a kayak and go out on the Hudson River that you understand it's tidal nature, have some kayak touring experience and or take a lesson first.
