Hey Rehd, glad to see you're doing something constructive :-) Thought I'd let you know these webbing loops I screwed down on the deck of El X just finished up a 2200 mile trip with no problems. Good for lifting the boat too. I just ran 1/4" line over the deck and through the loops and back down to the bumpers. I considered eye screws too, but saw this posted somewhere and thought it less cumbersome. The ends are doubled up where the brass screws go through.
Also watch out for the racks built onto your typical car. They can detatch unexpectedly. Bow and Stern lines are a must. Even on our Yakima rack, I used them, especially with three boats on top. Of course the old truck didn't move more than 65 mph, but you gotta love that ol' Toyota: 210K+ and it never complained once during the trip.
Bill
