    Mysterious Rack's

    I'm having a bit of trouble finding how much of a load the Vx's roof racks are rated for .

    I want to haul my bobcat pirogue ,which weighs 64 # . That's spread out over a length of 12' and 33" wide .

    I also went visit a local kayak shop to see about getting a rack, something after market ,but no dice .

    So before I start some epic search for a rack I would like to know if it will handle said application .
