Hello all happy holidays, I'd like to hear your opinions on how to transport my canoe or both canoes. I just bought a 2020 Ford F150 Supercrew with the short bed. It came with a 3 panel tonneau cover. I bought a small camper trailer last year (Casita 17ft) and we are getting ready to retire next year and go site seeing, that's the reason for the F150. Yes, I did search many ford forums but it's you folks who can offer real ideas. I want to keep the tonneau cover and use those standing...

Getting my wood canvas canoes up on my trucks roof racks is still doable but getting harder each spring so I found this on Face Book Marketplace Monday. It needs some work but it was pretty much what I was looking for. Lights inop, fender bracket weld broken, 1” &7/8” tongue (2” ball is my go to) and it’s stretched too long.
