In Response To: Re: women loading boats (Alex M)

: There is nothing particlarly "manly" about loading a kayak. Use a
: blanket or foam pad for hatchback, use an extention bar (a.k.a. outrigger)
: for any car, use a low car like those Subaru, rather than SUV. Will be
: easier on wallet too, with todays gas prices.

Maybe the extension bar works for some boats, but my Storm, with its high bow, almost fell off the extension bar twice before I took it to the dump (the extension bar, not the Storm!).

In an ideal world, we'd all have cars that make loading boats easy. In the real world, I need a station wagon, which is a real pain for cartopping, and a Ford, because that's the only dealership in the area.
