Suspenz bow and stern tie-downs add the second layer of security your kayak, canoe or SUP needs on the highway. Your rack straps hold the middle of the boat; bow and stern lines keep the ends from catching wind, lifting or shifting in a crosswind or a sudden stop.

Quick Ratchet, No Knots

Each line has a ratchet, so you can pull it tight in seconds without a trucker's hitch, and a thumb release lets it go just as fast when you unload.
