The cockpit covers are great for keeping the boats clean when dragged up on shore or hanging in garage and turn them into great car top carriers when on TV roof. We stuff them with all kinds of gear.

That is very interesting info. I guess the yaks must divert the air flow some before it hits the pod.
I see in your pic that you have a skirt over your cockpit. I assume that this is to keep out rain & keep the yak from acting like a parachute.

We use the "J" style and have actually found our gas mileage increases when carrying the yaks.

I have two yaks to transport. Which type of roof top rack do you guys use for your yaks? The "J" type which holds the yak in a near vertical position or the type which holds the yak flat with the bottom down? Any thoughts on which one has the least effect on gas mileage?
