Carrying a canoe while towing a TT?
I am looking for ideas on how to carry a canoe while towing my TT. I know there are some other conoers out there. How about share some pics of how you carry your canoe while towing your TT.

bobndot,
Are those custom made tie down brackets on the fenders?
Custom made and imported - ;)
Pop the hood, then use two 15" web straps ( i used an old dog leash and cut 2 lengths) I tied them to a support brace under the hood. When i need to tie anything to my roof racks, i pop the hood and pull the straps out. It saves the paint on the front of the trucks hood.
BTW, someone was concerned that the aluminum truck hood would bend, so I kept a close eye on it. In 7500 miles of hauling, all is fine.
Depending of what you tie-down, the rope will sometimes be in your line of vision. Not that it blocks your vision, (it's just a thin rope) but I can see some people being annoyed by it because they would allow it to annoy them.
amazon sells 'Sherpak, Seattle sports quick loops' $15/pr.
You dont have to tie these ones, they have a round stopper sewn to the end that holds under the hood when you close it.
