Put this on a 2011 jeep compass that I had bought crossbars for (roof rack) and use it to tie down a 15′ canoe.This is what you’re looking for if you want to tie a canoe to the top of your SUV. Holds it down perfectly and was easy to figure out with very good instructions. Someone was thinking when they made this product. It costs more than a piece of rope and a couple pieces of foam for a reason. First time I used it had to feed the blue rope thru the ratchets and figure out what goes where but it’s not hard. After that it’s so convenient to use again. Clamps take seconds to install or remove and have a non slip pad for canoe to rest on. Very glad I bought this! I wanted easy and secure and that’s what I got. I also discovered that Thule is a trusted name in this kind of stuff for your car with pieces that are made to fit right.

I towed my 2012 Ford Flex with my Old Town Canoe 169 behind my 40 foot RV for 150 miles. During the drive, there was a 25 mph wind from the right side of the vehicles. I stopped after 75 miles and had to tighten the right forward 819 Portage canoe bracket. It came loose in the wind. I drove the car back to our ranch and the canoe stayed secure. I found that I had to have the center of the canoe in the middle of the two roof racks. We left our ranch for our Maryland home and towed the car and canoe 2,763 miles back home. During our travel through Wyoming, an electric sign warned “Do not tow any light trailers along Interstate 80, because for the next 50 miles, there are winds from the South at 50 mph with gusts over that”. After the 50 miles, of intense driving through the wind, I stopped and again had to tighten the forward right bracket because it moved an inch to the right because of the wind. A few miles later, another sign read, “severe winds over 50 mph for the next 75 miles, do not tow any light trailers”. The winds were coming from the high Colorado mountains over the high plains in Wyoming. The canoe made it through the next 75 miles and never budged. We drove the rest of the way home and I checked the canoe security at every stop. It rode beautifully and I am impressed with both the Thule 819 Portage Canoe Carrier and the Thule Roof Rack. Don B

Not bad. They are less sturdy and more difficult to relocate than the Yakima gunwale brackets on round bars. But they are so versatile it’s hard not to like them. They don’t *feel* tightened down, as the design puts a lever of sorts in the middle of the bracket. The attachment point is wide, you see. This is needed to accommodate a large variety of crossbars. So there is flex in the mount, and subsequently the knobs tend to keep turning. Worry not, the brackets DO tighten more than adequately, even if it’s hard to tell. So they’re not perfect, but they’re pretty darn good.

This canoe carrier kit is an all-in-one, universal solution for mounting canoes to roof racks. Installation is simple — once the canoe is on the roof rack, place the four bases under the gunwales of the canoe, and then screw them down to the roof rack. The included straps loop over the bottom of the canoe and are easily tightened. The strap buckles have rubber bumpers to keep the buckles from scratching the vehicle and canoe. The ropes for securing the end of the canoe to the front and back of the vehicle have an easy-to-use ratcheting mechanism that makes it a cinch to tighten. Each component of the kit is thoughtfully constructed and feels durable. Once all the components are tightened down, the canoe doesn’t move whatsoever during transport, even at interstate speeds.One tip: if your vehicle doesn’t have mounting points at the front and rear of the vehicle, you’ll need to get some of the loop straps that fit under the hood and trunk/hatch of your vehicle.

We have a Subaru Impreza. The Canoe was secure on a three hour highway trip. Be sure to strap down front and back tight and watch videos to insure you don’t have flapping straps. The Thule 530 Quick Loop Strap holders secured strapping to the car well. I thought the front strapping would block view but no. Once in the car all seemed normal. we were able to mostly open the hatch back with the Canoe on top of our car. It did take two people to load and unload. My other half is very strong and did most of the work. However, another person was needed to guide the canoe over the car and the Thule Portage rack. Be sure to put the Portage thing on the inside of the canoe -pushing out.

I was a little disappointed, but mostly because of the car I have. My 2020 4Runner’s roof rack does not extend forward enough to make this easy. It needs to ride too far back to make it easy to put on, and it wasn’t possible to slide it on from the back. This also had the effect of making the canoe too wide. It would have been great if the rack the car’s rack was 2 feet longer. I made it work by putting the forward cleats facing outward, instead of inwards. Once installed, the canoe rode well, but not easy to put on and take off. I am still shopping for a better solution.

What’s not to like about this canoe carrier. I use this on my 119 Sportsman Discovery. Have used this for travels up 1k miles one way and back. You can easily use the supplied bow and stern rope, but I use Powertye tie downs, with Le Kapmoz hood loops. More secure and heavy duty.I usually stop at every refuel and adjust them just to be safe. Tbh the canoe isn’t going nowhere, if I didn’t even bother to check. Up to 80mph I have no issues, with my set up. Buy this over any of its competitors.

These worked great

I absolutely love how small yet secure this product is and the ingeniously easy way to install them onto your roof racks. Plus it comes with all tie down straps you need (including bow and stern straps). To use it on a Toyota FJ Cruiser, you’ll need to first reposition one of the stock cross beams but this is easy because they are designed to be adjusted as necessary. Great product!!

This is a great kit that included absolutely everything needed to safely carry a canoe on our existing Thule aero crossbars. It worked well, even up to highway speeds. The canoe was very stable, and the kit had absolutely everything needed. It seems really well made.
