On the cheap side, just buy foam pads that go on top of your roof rack. This gives you some support and prevents the kayak from moving side to side when strapping it down. You can also buy something like this: https://www.amazon.com/Malone-Racks-...01658236&psc=1 So you can have a bow strap for added security. |

I use ratchet straps and slide a pool noodle between my PA12 and rack to help with the grip and lessen the stress from tightening. The new addition I love is to hang a bath mat off the side of the roof between the racks. The rubber bottom holds the mat in place and the top lets the yak easily slide without scratching the roof.
Happy Hunting! |
