Hi everyone

Looking at going to Exmouth later this year and taking the inflatable (3.3m Quicksilver) which fits neatly inside the Prado while travelling. Once in Exmouth we'll inflate it and then plan to carry it on the roof bars from spot to spot as the fishing gods move us. Question is, as we only have cross bars (rated to 50 kg I think) will the dinghy sink down when strapped on and touch the roof? Currently thinking of 'u' bolting one or more boards to the bars for the keel to rest on, maybe a 4" board either side and one in the middle. They would need to be strong enough to carry the weight.

Has any one any comments or alternative suggestions.

Many thanks
