    Any kayak owners out there?

    Howdy folks -

    I have been thinking about purchasing a tandem kayak over the past few years and I might finally invest in one this year. I think it would provide great bonding time for my eldest son and I to get out and explore the many lakes and rivers in our area.

    A couple questions, if there are any kayak/Mirage owners out there -

    1. Tandem kayaks, likely being 10-12 feet in length. Should I expect the length to be a problem hauling on the Mirage roof?

    2. Would the Mirage plastic radio antenna get in the way? Is it removable? (I'll check it myself as soon as the weather behaves)

    3. I don't have any sort of roof racks or bars yet. I am looking at the difference between the "foam pads and straps" method, and the actual roof bars and kayak rack mounts from vendors like Thule. Any experience with either/or?

    4. Kayak owners - do you have any pics of your transport setup on your Mirage?

    Regards
