More pvc :mrgreen: ...4" pvc sections with the ends formed to fit my stock rack then lashed on with rope..cant beat it for 15$...yak is ratched strapped to the stock rack

Yaks slide very easily on the pvc making cartopping super easy. You do have to flip it once on the rack :roll: but trailering isnt an option and i dont know about any of you but my hull has indents from the molded hull supports so id rather transport on the rails.....

Love it! I'm an all things PVC guy so I can appreciate this.

That is truly nuts! (Wish I had thought of it). (-;

If you don't cap the ends, it's going to sound like a giant freight train whistle coming down the highway! :lol:
