Step by step instructions showing how to haul a kayak using a foam blocks kit on a two door car that has a moonroof. I drive a Toyotal Solar coupe. A lot of thought into how to transport my Topwater 120 PDL kayak using this model car that doesn't have carrier racks on top. Before deciding to use the foam blocks kit I considered the cost involved in installing luggage racks. Not wanting to invest a lot of money in transporting the kayak on the roof of my car I decided to put together my own kit that works great for the Old Town Topwater 120 PDL kayak.
I made my final decision that this would work after discussing the sunroof issue with a local kayak supply company. They said it wouldn't be an issue.
Here are the items I purchase separately:
1. Two 24" wide foam blocks designed for hauling kayaks on the roof of vehicles
2. Three cam straps, one 15' long and two 10' long. In the video I said the yellow straps were 12' long which was a mistake
3. Four s-shaped hooks that I took off of black rubber style bungee straps
4. Fifty feet of 1/4 thick rope
Additional items that I use in this video to help not scratch my Toyota Solar during the loading process are a large towel and a floor mat that has rubber padding on one side.
Hauling my Old Town Topwater kayak on the roof of my two door car is working out fine. If you have a newer vehicle, I wouldn't recommend using this method for transporting your kayak.
