The Lariat uses two 70 in stranded steel cables with a poly coating, built-in loops and a key lock. Hook and loop straps keep the cables rolled up when not in use. Malone notes it prevents opportunistic theft but is not a full anti-theft device.

KayakDIY take: A cable lock won’t stop a determined thief, but it stops the grab-and-go kind. For more gear ideas, see my fishing kayak accessories guide.
