Question

How can i transport a two kayak on a car with no roof racks???

Answer 1

just put a blanket or something on the roof of the car so you dont scratch it. then tie ropes through your windows

Answer 2

For about fifty $ you can get a roof top caring kit . It consist of two foam pads and four tie downs. They are made for kayak,s and loading on bare car roof,s. I hauled my kayak from Minnesota to Texas a few times with no problem,s. You want a kit for each yak. Follow the directions use common sense and stop to check the tie downs now and then.   YAK ON

Answer 3

Do your self a favor: buy a rack that will hold both kayaks and have it installed. If you try to tie the kayaks onto the roof and they fall off, either they will be destroyed by traffic following you, and you will then have an insurance claim to fill out, or they will rub against the car's paint and ruin the paint job and even wear some of the material off the kayaks, weakening them. The roof rack is inexpensive insurance.

Answer 4

duct tape.

Answer 5

you can get cardboard dunnage thats shaped like a long triangle,like a toblerone chocolate bar.it goes directly on your roof to keep from scratching.its cardboard but very strong.lash your kayak to front and rear bumpers,and pass the rope crossways through a window too for overkill if you want.
