What's the best (safest) way to transport a 31' canoe on top of a F150 pickup?

Asked by gondwanalon (22862points) June 29th, 2018

I’m thinking this (not drawn to scale) but don’t know the name of the vertical support mechanism that secures the front end of the canoe to the front hitch of the pickup. Do you know what that is called? Is such a thing even available to buy? Is it street legal?

The canoe is of carbon fiber construction and only weighs 85 pounds. And so 2 guys will have no problem loading it onto the top of the pickup.

Of course I could put this on a long trailer. Don’t want to go there.

Do you have any other ideas?
