    • Very nice complete kit
I have gotten a chance to use this kit on several occasions now. The foam blocks are sufficiently tall enough to allow the loads to clear the roof without interference when used without any roof rack. The blocks are sufficiently soft to get a good grip on my cars roof and do not mar the paint finish. The blocks have slots on one side for a boat gunnel and slots on the other side for existing roof racks. I use mine without racks, but the blocks would protect the finish on the boat and rack, and would provide additional grip. The cam-straps are of high quality and are nicer and heavier duty than any other web straps I have owned over the years, The buckles are within a protective boot. The buckles provide a tight secure grip, and allow a very taut secure tie-down. I simply open the car doors and wrap the straps around the load and around the car roof. I was a little concerned about the car door rubber weatherstripping, but saw no harm to them after a number of highway trips. As with any straps, be sure to twist them a few turns so they straps do not vibrate and “thrum” the car at highway speeds. The auxiliary ropes for the ends of the load are plenty strong, but the rope material is smooth and slippery. Extra care to tie proper knots, with a few extra half hitches is recommended. I almost knocked off one star for these slippery ropes, but the kit is so much better than any other I have tried or inspected that I’ll keep the five stars… The ropes and straps fit within a provided cardboard box, and I was pleased and surprised that the whole kit actually fits neatly back into its original package – a neat clear plastic rectangular bag. This is kind of wonderful, as it encourages me to keep the kit with me all of the time; ready to launch any time I need it for an unexpected find! The kit is perfect for metal or wooden boats, and can be used for light loads of long lumber – I’ve used pieces of closet pole for the cross beams to carry long boards. This kit is the best in its class... <update>please be aware that some cars have side curtain air bags under the roof side, which may be interfered by the straps wrapped under the car roof? Pull your car manual to ensure that you do not interfere with side airbag function? My cars are OK... ... show more

    • good solution for car without roof racks
When I bought a used Kia Carnival to replace my old Sedona, I hadn't realized that roof racks aren't available for some Carnival models. I decided to try out this Malone kit of foam block supports for transporting our canoe, and was pleased to find that they seem to give a very secure and easy to install transport option. The only rather minor drawback we have found so far is that when transporting the canoe through a heavy rainstorm, the webbing straps used for holding down the canoe can allow a small amount of water seepage to drip in near where they enter through the door seals, not a very significant annoyance (and maybe only one that would occur in a combination of very heavy rain and wind--If we had gotten off the water and on the way home half an hour later, we would definitely not have been worrying about a few extra drops of water, but about how to optimally split our time between bailing and paddling)! ... show more

    • Easy to use, even the first time!
We have a Pelican 15.5 foot canoe. Not light weight. We have a Toyota Camry. With the canoe on its hull, we set the foam blocks on the gunwales, two on each side. With one person at each end, we carefully hoist the canoe to shoulder height and guide her as she tilts to gunwale side down on the top of the car. Once on the car, it was a relief to find that it's easy to adjust the foam blocks and to center the canoe. It's also easy to push a little forward or back so the front and back end straps will be at an angle (not straight) for added support once they're tied on. We don't have boat racks on the roof of the car, which I think makes it easier to mount because we don't have to line up the four foam blocks to the railings and seat them. Our next step is to use the two very sturdy and strong straps and run these through the car. with all car doors open, we run one strap through the front doors, the second strap through the back doors, tighten and tie off loose ends so they don't flap in the wind, then close all car doors. These straps are what offers the most stability, this is what is holding the canoe onto the car. There is only one of these flat straps pictured, but the kit comes with two. Next we use the ropes (ours are black) to tie the bow and stern to the car. This is where I made some modifications. I don't use the included S hook, I use carabiners. I tied one carabiner to each end of one of the ropes, push a loop at the middle of the rope through the hole in the handle area of the canoe, and thread both ends of the rope through this loop (making a large enough loop to pass the carabiners through). I adjusted for length with additional knots. Now all I do is hook/unhook the carabiners on the metal circle cut-outs at both sides of the front under frame of the car, creating a stabilizing A-Frame shape. For the back I didn't find a good place to attach carbiners (or S hooks for that matter), and would need a longer rope to run it through the under-bumper frame. Luckily our car has a spoiler so we're simply tying the back rope from the hole in the handle to the spoiler (using same loop and thread method we used for the front). I don't use carabiners here. Again, straps are the main support, whereas, as it seems to me, the front and back are for extra stabilization (they're not holding the canoe on to the car), so not finding a strong metal frame to tie onto wasn't much of a concern. I would have liked longer rope here, though. It would have allowed more options, especially if we didn't have a spoiler. Another three or four feet would likely address most car scenarios. We've used this kit and taken the canoe off and on eight or nine trips, while the canoe stayed on the car for about a month. It takes my husband and I less than ten minutes to unstrap or restrap. Everything held up well. The ropes are strong and seem weather proof (looks like nylon), straps are super strong with a sturdy metal buckle with teeth which firmly catches the straps, and the foam blocks take a lot of pushing, shoving and weight with only a little change in shape and zero tears or nicks. I'm only taking off one star for the shorter than I'd like length of the ropes, and my own preference for carabiners rather than S hooks. Bottom line, I'd both recommend it and buy it again. ... show more

    • Solid solution for occasional use
I drive a Honda fit (tiny car) and have a 17' fiberglass canoe (big canoe) that I only use once or twice a year. I used to borrow a gas guzzling SUV to transport my canoe. Not anymore. This product is simple, inexpensive, and works great. My canoe is approx 3 feet longer than my car and yes it looks silly, but it's functional. I wouldn't reccomend this for ever day use or say its better than a traditional roof rack. But if you've gotta get your canoe to the water and don't have a vehicle appropriate, this is a great solution. This product has essentially converted my little MPG machine into a fully functional SUV for my annual canoe trip. As long as you tie it down to both the front and rear of the car and use both straps through the doors or windows (ropes, straps, and instructions included), your canoe will stay firmly planted on your roof without scratching your paint. I drove in excess of 70 mph and handling and control stayed very manageable. If you use your canoe on a regular basis you may want to bite the bullet and buy a proper roof rack, otherwise you can't go wrong here. My local outfitter wanted over $100 for a similar setup (foam blocks & straps), but with prime shipping I saved a ton of cash to buy more beer for the coolers :-) ... show more

    • An ingenious way to haul a canoe
This system really works. The kit comes with four sturdy foam blocks, two tie-down lines, two metal hooks and two flat straps. The blocks have grooves to hold the upside-down canoe on the car roof by its gunwales, and provide enough padding to keep the weight distributed evenly. They're coated with a grippy surface on the bottom, so they don't slide around. The straps pass over the canoe and through the car door openings to hold the canoe down tight. The lines and hooks hold the canoe down at each end and keep it centered. I used this system to haul a 15-foot canoe about 80 miles, and had no problems. (The wind noise takes some getting used to.) There was no damage to my car. Two minor issues: the grooves are wide enough to fit any canoe, but are loose on mine and tend to fall off when the canoe is lifted; and the straps pretty much require three hands to tighten securely. So it's really a two-person operation. But I highly recommend this system. ... show more

    • Great for light use.
Great kit, easy to use, easy to store. Use it a couple of times a year doing canoe trips with the scouts, so not sure about long term durability.

    • Bought for canoe and works perfectly
Has almost all i needed to put my canoe on my roof rack. Front and back rope ties could use an actual mechanism rather than relying on you to tie knots and make it work. I luckily know knots but know people who have issues tying knots and who will not use the ropes and hooks provided. The pads and straps are perfect though! Straps come with a little leather piece to help them not damage paint or car. Pads have grip in case you are using straight on car roof. ... show more
