Default Rack it Up (lets get wet)

So after having my Avant for about 3 weeks now, i got asked to go up to Wausau with my GF for a day & night, and we were going to go camping and be right on the "dells of Eau Claire" so why not have some fun and deck the car out like it was ment to be. I have been driving around town the last week with my free Yakima rack (78"bars, and lowerider Max's) But i decked it out with a NOVA CRAFT Bob Special in Carbon Fiber ( the blue steel) and of CF paddles to go with it. And i also brought along my L-logic Lil' Joe whitewater boat, and yes i have a matching yellow werner paddle and its also carbon fiber. So we had a fun *** time and even got in the boats a little but we had a lot of people looking as i passed them by in the Avant on the road.
Here are some pictures of what it looked like.

Decked out and ready to go


Out my window (sorry its dirty)


I had a great time and i plan to go again and take two Canoe's next time and maybe throw on a gear box also. Hope you like the car and the rack and the sweet boats.
Comments Please !!

Got to admit, you dont see this everyday.

Hopefully the canoe stays on top at 80mph.

Sounds like a fun trip!

I work with car racks everyday so i know how to tie anything you want to carry down. Throughout the whole trip the canoe didnt move at all, nor did the whitewater boat. It was pretty sweet. Im excited to get more up there when i take other trips.

Does anyone else have any pictures of their racks with boats up top ?
