I want to carry two touring kayaks on my 94 Explorer. They weigh about 140 lbs. total. I'll be carrying one boat most of the time but want the capability to carry two for the occasions when I need it.
By the time I'm done adding up the pieces a "mount to my roof rack" system from the well known rack manufacturers will cost me about $250. That seems like a lot of money considering the vehicle already has a 300 lb. capable roof rack.
Has anyone found a less expensive, safe, solution, other than foam blocks? If I have to spend the money I will but I'm hoping there is a cheaper, good, alternative.
