Product Description:
Right out of the package, clip a YakclipTM onto your kayak cockpit. Clip in your paddle, get in, and you're ready to go. You can clip the YakclipTM anywhere. Placing the YakclipTM in front when getting in and out of your kayak will leave both hands free to stabilize your entry or exit. Use the YakclipTM to hold your paddle while you have a drink. Move the YakclipTM with your paddle out of the way to the side of the cockpit to reel in that big fish!

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great kayak accessory!
I purchased 2 of these for my kayaks. It fit better on my "Perception Avatar" than the "Perception Shadow Sealion".

I would not make this purchase again. I feel that $2.80 for handling is excessive.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Quick paddle clip for your kayak, no drilling
This Yak Clip is a handy way to instantly add a paddle holder onto any kayak...even a rental. This is very handy for kayak photography, where you need to quickly set down your paddle and pick up your camera.

Since it doesn't use rivets or glue... you can snap it on or off of a kayak instantly and carry it home in your pocket. A very cheap, simple and handy item for any kayaker.

Also, I spoke to the vendor on an issue with another product. These folks provide excellent, ... Read More
