That looks like it should do the chore nicely ~ I carry a 16Ft Canoe on the roof of my Westy & I use a

Yakima BoatLoader to help with the Load&UnLoad ~

        You do need to have &Least 1 YakimaRack Though ~ I suspect that with other Racks it would be possible

to devise some sort of TemporaryExtension to do the Task Similarly ~

With the front passenger seat turned sideways, a 12�3� kayak just fits from the hatch back to the dashboard, but leaves no room for passengers (and also tends to make a mess with saltwater, dirt, and fish stink). I�d like to carry it on the top of the van, but I don�t think I could handle the loading/ unloading sequence. This accessory might do the trick? Has anyone on the list had any experience with it?
