    Riverside Cartop Carriers Universal Kayak Carrier Kit

    If you are looking for a quick-fix to get your kayak from A to B without installing an expensive rack, here it is. I used it to strap a 16' kayak to the top of my PT Cruiser and had no problem. It comes with two stiff foam blocks for the kayak to rest on that protect your roof, and plenty of straps for the front middle and rear. Once I got it strapped down, it wasn't going anywhere. I had to apply the brakes pretty hard when someone pulled out in front of me, and the kayak didn't budge. I even got out on the interstate for a time. Not sure if it is intended for long distances, but if you have a vehicle without a roof rack and need to move a kayak, this is your ticket. And I am sure the straps could be used for carrying other things as well.

    Those of you who are getting into kayaking know how quickly the money flies away as you begin outfitting. You walk into a store, look at the pretty boats, and say to yourself, "mmm, that's a nice chunk of change, but the budget wouldn't be stretched completely to the breaking point." Then you look at paddles, PFDs, skirts, bilge pumps, & paddle floats, and your budgetary camel is begging to go to the chiropractor before it's too late! OK, rant over. Suffice it to say that it's a great product, at an acceptable price, that does what it's billed as doing. SYOR
