Custom Kayak & Paddleboard Racks — Built strong.
Built to last.
Eliad Woodworks hand-builds kayak, canoe, and paddleboard racks sized to your dock, your yard, and your fleet — pressure-treated frames, marine-grade padding, no two builds the same.
Every rack is cut for one dock, one fleet.
We don't sell a catalog size. We measure your posts, count your hulls, and build the frame around them.
Double Kayak
A raised cradle for a fishing kayak, topped with a flat canopy shelf for a paddle, cooler, or second small craft — built directly onto the client's existing dock decking.
Freestanding
Three-Tier Fleet Rack
A ground-set rack for a mixed fleet — two kayaks and a stand-up paddleboard — with open rails so gear drains and dries between trips.
Start with a cut list, not a template.
Pick a shape and a capacity below and we'll rough out a spec sheet like the one our shop actually builds from.
This is a rough shop estimate — final dimensions are always taken on site from your dock, posts, or yard before we cut a single board.
Built from what holds up on the water.
Pressure-treated pine
Ground-contact rated 4x4 posts and 2x4 rails, sized to the load of your specific fleet, not a one-size frame.
Marine-grade crossbar carpet
Wrapped and stapled crossbars protect gelcoat and hull plastic from rub and scuff on every landing.
Stainless & hot-dip galvanized
Every bolt, lag, and bracket is rated for standing water and salt air exposure.
Sealed or left to grey naturally
We'll seal for a longer clean look, or leave it raw if you want that driftwood patina over time.
From a phone call to a finished rack.
Walk the site
We come to your dock, seawall, or yard and measure posts, decking, slope, and water line — not just the boats.
Rough the cut list
You get a spec sheet like the one above: mount type, tiers, footprint, and an estimate before any wood is cut.
Build & fit
Frames are cut, padded, and either shop-assembled or built directly in place, depending on access.
Load & walk through
We set your kayaks, canoes, or boards ourselves and walk you through loading and unloading before we leave.
What clients say after the first season.
"They measured our dock twice before cutting anything. Two seasons in, the frame hasn't budged an inch."
"We needed room for two kayaks and a paddleboard with zero dock space to spare. The three-tier layout solved it."
"Padding on the crossbars alone was worth it — no more gelcoat scuffs from the old rack."
Tell us about your dock and your fleet.

We build on-site across the coast — send a few details and photos of the space, and we'll get back with a rough estimate before we ever come measure.
