The completely redesigned BlackPak Pro (16" x 16") updates the traditional hard-sided kayak crate with a 25% weight reduction, a functional hinged lid, and a modular mounting system.

Construction and Assembly Built from UV-stabilized, injection-molded polymers, the crate handles harsh marine environments while maintaining structural rigidity through a lightweight ribbed design. The GridLoc panels use interlocking tongue-and-groove joints that hold themselves in place during assembly, requiring only a simple screwdriver to install the included stainless steel hardware.

Storage and Access The main compartment holds up to seven 3700-size tackle boxes (such as Plano, Bass Mafia, or Flambeau) with additional clearance on top. It is enclosed by a water-shedding lid with adjustable-tension hinges, allowing you to set it to pivot freely or hold a specific angle. Overtravel stops keep the lid within reach, rubber bumpers ensure quiet closing, and a CatchLatch system secures it shut.

Rod Holders and Rigging Six TetherTube rod holders come standard, featuring integrated leashes and oversized hooks to secure your fishing rods. They mount directly to the 2D GridLoc pattern present on every interior and exterior panel. This mounting system allows you to position the tubes high for longer rod butts or low to lift the crate into a HighNDry position.

Tankwell Security Rubberized feet dampen deck noise, and Omni corner brackets provide multiple tie-down options. The crate includes four YakAttack OmniHooks, though the brackets also accommodate standard carabiners or bungee cords.
