Yakima's New 4055 Universal Foam Block Canoe Carrier

    Until now, there haven't been many options for carrying canoes on factory installed crossbars. Your only option has usually been to set the canoe right on the crossbars-which will get your boat to the water, but not before scuffing (or worse!) the gunwales and crossbars. The new Yakima 4055 Universal Foam Block Canoe Carrier is an inexpensive new offering that safely cushions your canoe on almost any factory crossbars. It also fits Yakima Roundbars, Thule square loadbars, and roofs without any rack at all!
    The Universal Foam Block Canoe Carrier includes everything you'll need to safely carry your canoe. The foam gunwale cushion blocks are designed to fit most gunwale and hull designs, and the shaped crossbar cutouts fit Yakima round bars, Thule square and aero bars, and most aerodynamically shaped factory installed crossbars (most crossbars up to 2 1/2" wide by 1 1/4" high). For vehicles without any roof rack, the gunwale cushions feature a high grip laminated anti-skid pad to prevent your boat from shifting around while you're out on the highway. Bow and stern tiedowns and center load strap to secure your canoe are included, as is a handy mesh carry bag for storage. Setup is simple, and full instructions are included. Spring is on the way, so grab the Universal Foam Block Carrier, dust off your canoe, and get ready!
