YakAttack ShortStak Upgrade Kit for BlackPak Pro - Ranger Green | 13" x 13" Kayak Crate System | Stackable Gear Storage Add-On with GridLoc Panels, Hinges, & Latches | Fishing Organization Accessory

Q: What is the YakAttack ShortStak Upgrade Kit designed to do? A: It replaces the lid of a 13" x 13" BlackPak Pro and adds a second storage layer. The stackable compartment keeps frequently used tackle, tools, and gear within easy reach without increasing the crate footprint. Q: Is the ShortStak a standalone storage crate? A: No. The ShortStak is designed specifically as an upgrade for a BlackPak Pro and requires components from the crate to function. It attaches to the top of the crate and cannot be used independently. Q: Why add a ShortStak to a BlackPak Pro system? A: Many anglers store large amounts of gear inside their crate, which can make items in the bottom difficult to reach from the elevated seat position of modern fishing kayaks. The ShortStak creates a separate top compartment for frequently used tools and tackle. Q: How does the design integrate with the BlackPak Pro? A: The bottom edges of the ShortStak panels are angled to match the geometry of the BlackPak opening. This creates the same water-shedding fit as the original lid while maintaining the crate’s overall dimensions. Q: Can accessories be mounted to the ShortStak panels? A: Yes. The panels feature the GridLoc 2D mounting platform with molded screw bosses, allowing anglers to attach accessories such as MightyMounts, Through Hull Wiring Kits, TracPaks, and other compatible gear. Q: What items are included in the ShortStak Upgrade Kit? A: The kit includes four side panels, one bottom panel, rubber bumpers, hinges, catches, latches, support straps, and stainless steel hardware required for assembly. The kit does not include a lid. Q: What materials are used in the construction? A: Injection-molded UV-stabilized polymers with ribbed panels for rigidity and tongue-and-groove GridLoc panel assembly. Q: What are the dimensions and capacity of the ShortStak compartment? A: Interior dimensions are 11.9" x 11.9" x 4.25", sized for quick-access gear while fitting the 13" x 13" BlackPak Pro.
