I've been hauling my FG Dagger Meridian around for over a year and I've
never had any problems with stress cracks or such.  I have a Mirage rack
mounted on a longbed Ford Ranger.  I use straps to secure the kayak and
nylon rope to make an inverted vee safety line at the bow.  I've never had
to worry about boat or rack coming loose.
