Occasionally I leave it on top of the car overnight, locked to one of the roofracks with a chain. It seems the chain was not clearly visible: Someone untied all other lines and straps, tried to get the boat of the car, breaking off a wingmirror and denting the side of the car, then discovered the boat was still attached with a chain, so he left, leaving the boat hanging by the side of the car. The boat may be only 2 months old, but it is quite heavily scratched and extensively modified: Decklines, aluminium reinforcements, electric pump... Impossible to sell. I will NOT leave my car outside again, overnight.
