The best theft proof method of safekeeping your kayak in car transit is to have it inside your trunk out of sight. I know of only one theft of a folding kayak from inside a car. It happened about a dozen years ago. The fellow had a VW Westphalia bus parked on a Greenwich Village NYC street and left his Feathercraft K-1 bag in plain sight inside the passenger area. The thief was going after an interesting looking bag, not a kayak. I bet it wound up being tossed a few blocks later. ralph diaz *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
