I've seen the sunfish cartopping threads. It theorizes alot, but dosn't give any practical advice for cartopping if you're a 115lbs female.
I'd really like to cartop alone...even if I'm not cartopping alone my friends aren't much bigger than I am.
Trailers seem exorbinatly expensive $500+ even on craigslist plus I'd need a towar. Seeing as I got the boat for free I'm trying to keep my costs down.
I have a 10 yr old Saab 9-5 4-door. I was thinking a THULE rack with a sliding ladder system of 2x4 to load off the boot.
S's are sunfish.
