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!
