[Paddlewise] Yak Mako vs thule saddles

I need to replace my racks and find that Yakima has new Mako saddles.  They
seem very big, with only a narrow rubber piece in the middle to hold the
kayak.  I have used the old style Yak saddle for many years and was never
happy with how they fit different kayaks and the difficulty of adjusting
them.  The Mako don't appear to have any adjustment at all.  The Thule
saddles appear to be self adjusting and simpler.  Are they better or worse?
