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.

  • I use a pair of Yakima Outdoorsman racks. Our 17' canoe just overhangs to the windshieid edge, plenty of room for turns. Sorry, no pics due to Photobucket.
  • I carry fishing kayaks and tow my TT. I have a Yakima Outdoorsman 300 rack system that I put over the bed of my truck and it has a high enough capacity that it would easily handle canoes. The racks can be bought for about $375 online and it goes on and off in about 10 minutes. The only downside is that you cannot use this rack and a tonneau cover.
  • Add a front receiver hitch to your tow rig, then front riser bracket and same for the bed.


    or just use a van for your tow rig...


    Sorry, the original pics fell prey to the photobucket fiasco
