How to load a canoe on your vehicle - Algonquin Outfitters

Will this be secure enough for 70 MPH on the highway?

@markquimby82 Ultimately the responsibility of a "secure load" is with the driver. We suggest a belly (Middle strap) and also end Y straps to properly secure a canoe on top of a vehicle. We transport single, double and even multiple canoes this way.

What knots did you use to put tension on the cord?

@newhousehaugh We have a video for that! It's called "How to tie a Trucker's Hitch knot" We not only tell you what knot we use we show you how to do it. Rent a canoe from us or book a canoe trip and we will show you first hand how we "load a canoe on a car or truck"
