[Paddlewise] Yakima Saddles on a Thule Rack

Hello all,

so I don't have a car. I do however own a nice Yakima rack and lots 
of saddles. Now my girlfriend let me buy a rack for her car. It's one 
of those fancy funny new Beetles just dying to have a 18" boat on top 
of it. Thule is the only one who makes a rack that fits both the 
Beetle and a kayak (you need some sort of weird extender for the 
Yakima). So I bought the Thule rack but I don't want to buy any more 
saddles.

So now we get to my question. Is anyone making an adapter for Yakima 
saddles is there a trick for getting them to fit? Apparently, one or 
the other used to but realized they could make more money by 
requiring you to purchase theirs.

My new boat (a Kayak Sport Millennium) arrives Monday and I have to 
get it to the water somehow!
