Hey there, I posted some photos of our canoe rack on our blog if any of you are interested...

Just scroll down for the photos. We've now driven with it this way for a few weeks and used it five or six times. We use carpet squares to ease it off and on the roof. We're minimalists so I'm sure you guys could come up with a far more beautiful one but this one cost us $40 including the cinch down ties and we're already on the road so needed it to be easy to put together. Just an idea...
