Recommended Canoe Carrier for 2012 Volkswagen Jetta SportWagen with Rola RXBL Crossbars
Updated 04/15/2015 | Published 04/14/2015 >
Question:
Im looking at the Rola RXBL crossbars for my 2012 VW Jetta Sportwagen. I would like to be able to carry an 11foot canoe. Does Rola make a canoe carrier to go with the RXBL crossbars?

Expert Reply:
Rola does not offer a canoe carrier at the present time. However, I do have a recommendation for you to carry a canoe on your 2012 Volkswagen Jetta SportWagen with the Rola Roof Rack 59820 that you referenced. I recommend the Thule Portage Canoe carrier part # TH819. These universal mount gunwale brackets have durable brackets and have ramped sides for easy loading; the padded bases ensure safe passage for your canoe. Tie-downs are included.
