Anyone using the Compass loader ,can you answer a few questions i have before i run out & get one.
1. Can it be left on the kayak while using the hobie scupper cart with enough clearance .
2. is it fiddly to install /remove while the kayak is on the scupper cart.
Have watched the hobie video & it only shows fitting & removal while the kayak is upside down on the roofracks.
I mostly use a trailer but am looking into cartopping as well.

cheers
Clint

Has the loader been discontinued? I cannot find one and wasn't sure if it just is out of stock due to COVID-19 or a replacement model is coming. Just got a new Compass and don't want to damage the rudder when car topping solo.

Hi guys, I'm a new (used) Compass owner. Moved over from the Bonafide SS107. Only have car-top carrying option, so need a Hobie loader. Know anybody that has them new or used? Also, is there a DIY solution. Thanks in advance for your responses.
