ah yes, the endless saga of DIY fixes, innovations, endless possibilities. I will be doing several soon since I will be back on the water soon. In the past, I have done seat mods, fish grippers, leashes, hook removers, Making everything watertight, motor mounts,carts/dollys,PVC pipe and fittings are my friends. Oh and not to forget the formidable bungie!

Not really new or innovation, but for easy loading from rear of a sedan I use an inverted kayak cart (from Walmart) on the trunk in tandem with the suction cup channel loader from Malone on the rear window. This keeps the boat from making direct contact with the car while loading, providing two fulcrums if you will. Lash them together to prevent sliding.
