Question:
I have a 78foot Rack and Roll with a 16foot canoe and Load Warrior mounted side by side. What is the best way to secure the bow and stern? The canoe will be sticking at least 61inch behind the rear rack. Is it really going to do any good to tie it to the trailer to combat crosswinds? Thanks.

Expert Reply:
Due to the small size of the Yakima Rack and Roll trailers like the part # Y08107 you really can't tie the bow and stern to anything and have it be very effective. Most people just secure the kayaks/canoes with the straps that run around the outside of the boat and that works just fine.
For a canoe carrier that would allow you to transport it on the Yakima Rack and Roll Trailer part # Y08107 that you referenced you would want the Inno Locker Watersport Carrier # INA446.
