The unique canoe rack specifically designed for a 1981-92 Westfalia. Side brackets are bolted directly to pop-top rear hinges, so no modifications needed. It is far more secure than a rack clinging (clamped) to the van’s roof-gutters. The bow of the canoe is secured on the Integrely modified roof-tub. All components are powder coated aluminium (patent pending). Loading or unloading a canoe can be quick (about a minute). It can be locked onto the rack. The system (patent pending) has been used regularly for 5 years. Check the 5th photo for the alternative system used by others. :-)
