Its top-loading slot accepts common 1\/2\" track hardware so rod holders, camera mounts, cup holders and tie-downs can be added, moved, or removed in seconds — even while on the water. Built from UV-stable, marine-grade materials and supplied with stainless thread-forming screws, the GearTrac is intended to withstand saltwater and freshwater conditions and fast, simple surface installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does the top-loading design change how I mount and reposition accessories?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe top-loading slot eliminates the need to slide accessories in from the gear track's ends, so you can add or move items vertically into the rail while staying in your kayak.
