I reckon its not a very good idea no matter how good the rack the roof is only made of recycled dog food can and with just a Kayak and a side gust my old Grand would move so hate to think with a tinnie.

I saw a LC 200 in one caravan park up nth with a very large alloy boat on the roof that covered the whole vehicle.Plus outboard on a bumper rack,plus towing a large Kedron van.plus bike rack plus huge gear boxes fr / rear o van.Madness..!
