Question:
I have a hullavator from years ago when they first came out. Is the mount the same? Would this work to attach the cradles to my rack. I lost the original mounts and would like to use the system again.

Expert Reply:
The mounts for the older Thule Hullavators, 897 and 897XT are different than the newest iteration, the Thule Hullavator Pro Kayak Carrier # TH898.
If you have the oldest version, which is the 897 (and only available from February 2005 - December 2005), I checked with Thule and they no longer offer replacement mounting brackets. If you have the Hullavator 897XT though, there are a number of replacement parts available, depending on what you need.
