Whoops! - Sorry Ralph Diaz, I misread your statement regarding kayak stackers 
on vehicles.

SandyKramer: I would suggest checking out your local sporting goods store in 
search of kayak hauling accessories, there is lots of new stuff out there. The 
I
Check out roof rack websites - Yakima's did everything for me. 
BTW
The Sweet Roll is a combination platter: rollers under stern /cradles under 
bow
Hully Rollers are 2 pairs of rollers that the boat slides up on.
Both are especially nice for paddlers with tall vehicles.
I have found various carrier sites to be really educational when pricing and 
comparing specs needed for various boat/car specifications

Thanks.  I have Yakimas and 4 cradles, recently paid $85 for an extender kit. 
 Is it really worthwhile substituting Hully Rollers or the black pads Ralph 
mentions?

I usually put a blankie on the back of the station wagon (the cradles are 
still far "inland" from the stern) and slide the boat on that.  Even if I had 
rollers, I'd still have to use the blanket.
