Hi all,
I'm looking to get a boat loader roof rack to carry a small tinny on top for the big trek. I have looked at the Custom Boat Loader from WA and the Rhinorack system.
The CBL looks and feels more substantial and comes with an electric winding system but of course for a lot more dollars. The Rhinorack uses a cordless drill for power but through a plastic gear box ????
The idea is to use the rack for trips, but remove it to save on wind resistance (and fuel) during the rest of the year, so I need something that is easily removed. I thought I might set up a pulley system above the car in the garage to lift off the boat and rack together.
Then comes the issue of covering up the mounting bolts. Can you buy sections of the plastic strip that fills the mounting slot?
Has anyone else got a boat loader or got any thoughts on the matter?
