[Paddlewise] Minivan

I just bought a flame red Dodge minivan (short wheelbase, cab-forward
design, with bra and fog and driving lights). It has the factory roof-rack
allowing a Yakima tower to slide right into the factory rail. I'm setting
it up as previously suggested on this list with a left and right cradle up
front and left and right rear rollers -- both on 66 inch bars. Does anyone
know if this set-up is strong enough if I carry three British heavies this
way (third kayak would be tied above and between the other two kayaks with
an ensolight pad for deck protection on the two below)?

Thanks.

Doug Lloyd (BC'in ya as I pass you by...and if I'm pushing blue anymore, it
will be with my paddle in the ocean!)
