Storing a kayak or SUP is part of the rhythm of paddling. After a long day on the water, good storage keeps your craft protected and makes the next outing easier. Kayak & SUP Storage isn’t about equipment for the garage — it’s about safeguarding the hours you spend on the water, season after season.
Why Thoughtful Storage Matters
Proper storage prevents hull deformation, protects against moisture, and keeps UV damage at bay. Racks, wall mounts, hoists, and covers all serve the same purpose: to support the shape of your craft and shield it from the elements. When chosen well, they add clarity and order to your paddling routine.
Paddlespot Tip: If your kayak lives in the sun, pair your rack with a breathable cover to reduce UV stress while allowing moisture to escape.
How Storage Solutions Work
Most systems focus on spreading the load evenly across the hull. Padded arms reduce pressure points, while suspended systems lift the boat safely out of the way. Covers offer lightweight protection, especially useful if you store your kayak outdoors or in a shared space.
Choosing the Right Storage
Think about:
Where your craft lives — garage, shed, boathouse, wall, or ceiling.
How often you paddle — frequent paddlers often prefer quick-access wall racks.
Weight and size of your kayak or SUP — heavier boats benefit from sturdy floor stands or hoists.
Indoor vs. outdoor conditions — covers matter more outdoors.
If you store other gear alongside your boat, our Paddle Accessories and Paddle bags collections can help keep everything organised.
Care & Maintenance
A quick rinse after saltwater trips, a dry hull before covering, and an occasional check of straps and fittings go a long way. Storage gear itself needs little care — just keep it clean and ensure mounting points stay solid.
