This is a great system. I have it and it works best. I don't remember the manufacturer but a local kayak shop should carry them. I use it with a padlock through the loops to lock it to my racks. The racks lock to the car. Yes, someone could cut the cable, but the chances of someone spending all their time driving around with cable cutters and a way to carry off the boat, on the remote chance they might find one, are pretty slim.
I don't agree with the u-bolt. I had a bolt with one and I put a hole in someones hull with it during a surfing collision
