Easy to Load Roof Mount Kayak Carrier Recommendation for a Vibe Sea Ghost Kayak
Question:
I recently purchased a vibe sea ghost. Looking to purchase a system for easy loading by myself 60 year of age. All advice is greatly appreciated and needed.

I looked up the specs on your Vibe Sea Ghost kayak. It is pretty sweet! Looks like it weighs 74 pounds and is 13 feet long. The Malone DownLoader # MPG114MD with the Telos load assist # MPG351XL is a great option. This combination will also provide a load assist feature for loading/unloading the kayak. It is rated for 75 pounds.
To determine if this or another carrier will fit I will need to know the year, make, and model of the vehicle and if it has crossbars that run side to side on the roof, the brand they are if not factory, and, if it does not have crossbars then I would need to know if the vehicle has a naked roof or side rails that run front to back.
